This video seems to show the whole process, perhaps try it with a new model memory

Have you set the correct AETR channel order?

I think that might be your best chance.

My second pair arrived yesterday, very good customer service, they really were worth the original price when you look at the quality of materials and manufacture, it is a real shame for Kevin.

I have just ordered a second pair, the original pair that I got are still doing great service so I thought I would snap up a second pair to hopefully last the rest of my days ( I am only 40 )

I am glad you got it working Allan TTSAutomate does look interesting, I will give that a go thanks!

If you have a Taranis plus **LINK** If you have the original version **LINK** Make sure you also replace the 'SYSTEM' folder that is where all of the standard sounds are for the timer etc. Personally I use the 'Amber' sounds because the voice is nicer

£58 plus the BMFA membership so £91 in total, that might go up slightly after the AGM in December. The club owns the field but there is no toilet / power or anything, just a field with a gate. The club does have some good indoor meetings, which reminds me I must get to the next one.

Yes RC PLane Flyer, it seems it was. (I am sure it would be against the code of conduct due to the content **LINK** )

Is this it? Thanks to Google http://www.phoenixmodel.com/phoenixmodel/upload/ManualFiles/87_-_Pilatus_PC21.pdf Edited By WolstonFlyer on 21/10/2016 18:51:05

That looks like a lovely model Martin

Mathematically, any point on the surface of a sphere can be defined as the pole. People associate "North" with one such point. Then, the point most distant from it on the surface would be referred to as the opposite pole call it "South" or "Anti-North", connect the two poles with a great circle around the sphere, and you have divided it into two hemispheres. There is a catch, there is an infinite number of great circles passing through the two poles. You must designate a third point in order to uniquely determine a single great circle of reference. People decided to use "Greenwich" for this point, and use "eastern" and "western" to refer to the resulting hemispheres from there. Logically, the "east pole" and "west pole" are the two points on the sphere most distant from this great reference circle although not an axis of rotation for this particular planet that we call home.

I am sure the EU have re-written the laws of physics since then, they like to do things like that for no reason 😂

Perhaps it is time to close this thread, it has gone on far too long!

Does he have a conveyor belt? Sorry it's a very old question, my kids asked me this one a few years ago

White. It's a polar bear and his cabin is at the North Pole. Edited By WolstonFlyer on 16/10/2016 22:03:23

I didn't manage to finish my last three mass builds so will sit this one out and try and get one of them finished!!

I am glad you have enjoyed it Gary! Well there is one about a quad copter, it takes off and hovers inside a car that has its windows rolled down, while the car drives up to 30mph, the quad then flies out of the side window of the car, does it keep pace with the car so it can fly back in again or suddenly drop behind the car..?

It is an interesting video because you can see at one point that he speeds up the belt without altering the throttle position and the plane stays in the same relative position on the belt, the wheels just speed up to match. The forward thrust from the plane only needs to be enough to overcome the friction from the wheels / axles. When he does then increase the throttle and the plane moves forward relative to the belt, the wheels clearly won't suddenly start skidding forwards, so the wheel is still in contact with the belt, but for the bwheel to move forwards in relative position it must be covering more forwards distance than the belts backwards distance in the same time? Does that mean the wheel is going faster than the belt? I really should not have posted this question on here... sorry!

No problem, it has been very interesting to see the various discussions and points of view.

Yes, it was posted in this thread many pages back. See how he can speed up the treadmill and not have to increase the throttle of the plane to hold position, it's a shame the treadmill top speed was reached to test it further. It would not stop the plane taking off Edited By WolstonFlyer on 16/10/2016 19:07:54

There are two versions of the question Chuck, neither are 'wrong' they are just worded differently. The one I posted seems to be the first google search result for '747 on a conveyor belt', sorry about wording of the title of the link, I am sure the 'big man upstairs' is not offended. **LINK**

Spot on Dave, thank you 😊
