Thanks for the info so far. I forgot to add that it would be a windows machine. Mine has several faults,lid is faulty,certain angles of opening give no picture or sound and now battery as failed.not worth repairing. i would like to of kept around £600, the lenovo z51-70 i have now was much dearer new. it has dvd drive and 1TB ssd,dont really need both them this time. There is a shop near by that as branches over the country that sell ,refurbed. When looking i thought they were brand new! guy was not great at telling me what the equivilent of mine was roughly.only to spend as much as i can offord . I perhaps might like to go seperate graphics this tiime,so i can turn more FPS up buying on-line is good but like said you need to know what you need. so 2 questions then please, what would be a good graphics card (not dedicated) at the lower end to run say accurc at lower fps, i get 60 i think with dedicated. And CPU i have intel i7 5500u 2.40ghz, i would need same grunt or higher sligtly. I do not design of office work,most strain is the couple flight sims. not used turned way up.

I need to replace a laptop ,mine as nearly had it,bought in 2015. But after going to PC world the laptop section and choice is really bad,as well as the help. There is a second hand outlet with good warrenty i might try BUT i have no real idea of specs now. The laptop i have is performance wise ok for my use,I only run Heli-x and accurc on it,it looks ok and never freezes while playing. The cpu is a i7 5500u gen5 2.40ghz 2.40ghz. 8gb mem and intergarted graphics hd5500. I can just the amount of memory, and Disc space and screen size,mine is 15.6. Its just the CPU and grahics i need to know what to look for,i do not want less performance. any info would be great.

Its not a file name issue for sure. have tried a "new" track with exact file name as a standard with no luck. GF and SF all work fine with standard tracks.

I have found out that the newer colour screen radio`s can accept 8 characters if needed. only symbol i have seen from standard is "-". Although i put a # after a 6 character file and that was found WHILE my knew file with exact file name will either not show or show and not play! For me its not a file thing,i am sure. i am all set to say sod it BUT its just bugging me know.spent all day yesterday on this. trying lots of stuff from suggestions here and elsewhere with no luck. one was that not to have 2 files with same name, i had fm-1,fm-1, fm-1#.fm.1 So i removed all,called my new file fm-1 ,same has standard,file is found in track menu but wont play! the only thing i can think is,some guy said the sample must be 2040hz or lower,the TTS i am using is 2050hz,typical 10 hz over. i record in audacity at correct rate,again been told 16000,22000 and 36000 at mono! surprised how little help the open/edgetx dedicated sites have been. thought this is one of the benifits of opentx,so thought it should be a easy one for techy etc.

Watching more vids about using TTS and open/Edge tx. This last vid said that the TTS sample you make MUST be below 2040hz or it will not play. So opened the TTS mp3 sample in Audacity and it was 2400hz! Soooooo looked at play back rate options and Audacity had 2050hz,near enough? Recorded and guess what ,no sound in radio yet again!!!!!! If i choose 1600hz to play sample its slowed the speech down,so this part of audacity is working.

All the flight modes have it in my standard sounds file, fm-1,fm-2,fm-3 etc. I have given up ,last thought i had was to move the files around with the card in the radio,i normally take the card out. This made no difference. Surely if there was a issue in the file it would not play on the PC! i have read that guys use a TTS programme for custom phrases or words. All the ones i have found convert the text to speech to MP3. Surely when playing the MP3 in Audacity and saving in WAV is not the issue? its plays ok on the PC

The "track" i have mede like above was named incorrectly at first. I renamed it to " fm-1" or " fm-nrm" both will not play. The only thing i can think it is ,,, I use a TTS site, that records in MP3 ,i then convert to WAV .i then have to use Audacity to record. The files play ok on the PC and all settings etc are same as the standard WAVs going by properties.

I have Audacity, was using that. the vid on YT said to use 16000hz mono ,16 bit. i will try again using 32000hz. there are 2 options in record, record and record new track. Which do you use? thanks

I wanted some different WAV tracks. Same "phrase" but different voice. So i downloaded the WAV files 16000 hz and 16 bit etc BUT in Special funtions these new tracks do not show. i was told its because i named them different from the originals inthe sound folder and EN . So i named them exactly the same as the original files. still did not play.i could see them but not working.the thing was i put a # at the end of the original tracks thinking the change will stop these working and my new tracks will BUT even the old tracks renamed with the # was seen in SF and played!!!!! i am new to the EDGETX and radio master and its driving me nuts. seen some YT vids and its shown done like i have. Ihave seen vids of guys playing home made tracks and music worked by a switch,what am i doing wrong? thanks?

I have been kind of duped in buying a legit RF5.5 and RF interlink x USB controller. The CD has the serial ,no serial on the controller! A email to RF got a very fast reply in saying this controller does not work with RF5.5! Can any one please explain what version of RF came with this contoller ? and what if any sim will work with the "tatic interlink-x usb controller" ? i did not realise the controller needs a serial,the seller showed the cd`s case and serial, not back of the genuine (but incorrect type) controller. thanks

The Nano Tech far right plug looks bigger and slightly different.

Need to replace the 8AA type pack in my JR DSX9. i have been using a Overlander enerloop pack. This time i am going to try a LiFe pack (i can can find 1 in the UK)!!!! Thing is the plug on some packs say JR/Spek and called JST-XH ,this looks bigger than my plug, my plug looks smaller. Is JST-XH correct for JR/Spek?

When you say call Ken at enya direct,do you mean Enya-engine.com?

Thanks guys i will try Steve Webb. i know i need a gasket for sure BUT also there was no gasket/washer on the head.It was a old engine i bought. Should a 15-vi have a head gasket,can not find a assenbly/parts diagramme online.

Apart from being lucky on EBAY etc, is there anywhere in the UK that might have Enya spare parts?
