I have a spare Laser 80 and a Laser 180..I do not have clue what models to get for this 2 engines So I be going to this Laser weekend .Be a good chance to see what models I can get for these 2 engines

I have always used a Y lead for ailerons but most flyers in my club go for the 2 servo in separate channels with a mix .So is there any pro and cons with 2 servo and a mix or stick with a Y lead plugged straight into the aileron port on your receiver ?

Funny you mentioned the 10 J someone else also recommended the 10 J Might take a look at the 10 J

The transmitter was the DX 6 DSMX and the receiver was the AR 620

Been a life time user of Sektrum and decided to change over to Futaba .Thinking of buying a 16 IZS Looking on U Tube about the 16IZS it looks a bit complicated to operate and set up but is this just because I am use to Spektrum and once you get use to Futaba is it a simple to set up and operate.Do not want to have a compicate transmitter that is to compicated operate

No I always keep my transmitters in the car out of the sun .I have a feeling I have read some where the DX 6 was a bit prone to motherboard problems

Thanks everyone Not worth risking and not worth repairing. I have given the DX6 to a youngster in our club on the understanding he only uses it on his simulator and not for flying models .There is always a good side to thinks .Now do I buy the NX 8+ or the NX 10 Or change completely and buy a Futaba 16 IZS 🤔

Had my DX6 bound to my DH 60 Moth .Started the model up,did the usual checks ,all OK .Place the DH 6 Moth on the strip on tick over ( ic motor not electric ).Has I walked back to the flight box for some reason my DH Moth went into full throttle and shot of.down the strip.. I had no control over it Luckily it careered into the safety fence.When I got to the model I noticed the DX6 was turn on but had no screen like the transmitter was turned off I turned DC 6 off and turned it back on and control was restored to the model .Why did the fail safe not kicking in and return the model to tick over .When I got the model back to the pitts and I check it over and the fail safe was working OK .I do not know what cause the model to go into full throttle and lose all radio control..Yet the transmitter switch was on but the transmitter was not working with a blank screen .The DX6 is working fine now but can not trust it anymore Any idea what could of caused this .I have no idea what caused this happened

This is getting to technical for me .Think I stick to the Satio 100 .Problem solved

That is very interesting Geoff .Thanks

I did try a 15x6 on the DH Moth before the trouble with the DX6 .I can not recall it made that much difference. Order a new DH 60 (due in the end if September,which means October ).Thought I play it safe and install a Satio 100 .I can always throttle back .You do not have to fly at full throttle but the power will be there should I need it .That is what the throttle is there for I can fly it around on a third throttle and if I need more power it will be there .With the Laser 80 I had to fly it around on almost full throttle with nothing in reserve

So what would a 15x6 prop.give me over a 14x6 prop.IE what extra would the 15x6 give me over the 14x6 prop ?

14x6 APC

I have a Laser 80 installed in a Seagull DH 60 Moth,or rather I did have .My old DX6 malfunction and lost signal.RIP.Gipsey Moth .Bined the DX 6 Just order a new Seagull DH 60 Moth My question to all you ic experts out there is. The good old Laser 80.flew the Moth very scale like but only had just enough power for it. Thinking of getting a Saito 100 ( would of gone for a Laser 100 but hey all good things come to a end ).Will putting in a Satio 100 has to a Laser 80 make much difference in power (will the Saito 100 make a difference or will it not make much difference and in that case just keep the Laser 80 I would like a bit more power then I had with the Laser 80,not much more but just a bit more power .So it will loop.with out having to dive to pick up enough power to loop the Moth (yes I know the full size had to do that but I like a bit of power in reserve .I do not have to use it but it us there if needed.So the question is do I buy a new Satio 100 or just keep the Laser 80.???

Thanks John .Did not know of the NX8+ I order one from Als Models tomorrow 👍

What has happened to the NX 8 transmitter .Can not find one any where .Been told it has been discontinued. Surly that can not be true .My old DX 6 has just cost me a model.The DX 6 just for no reason turned it self off in mid flight .Fail safe kick in but the model was a right off .Turn the DX 6 off and turned it back on and it was all OK again but can not trust it anymore .Thought I replace it with a NX8 but now been told the NX8 has been discontinued Do not really want to buy a NX 10 .So is that it no 8 channel radio from Spektrum now ????

Tried all those Shows in stock until you ring them and you get the same answer "Sorry the Riot is out of stock at the moment " Rang the main supplier told looking at lest September before they can get some new stock .Given up and order a Wot 4 Fom e

Well that has narrowed it down now to the Wots models .Can not find a single Foamy Riot any where and Centry told me it has no idea when they will be back in stock .Looking like it is going to be the Wot 4 foam -e

A burger and chips £15 come on

Never considered the Max Thrust Riot .Might go for the Riot for my winter hack , it is slightly bigger and may be better when it gets a bit muddy

Looking at getting a hack model for those cold winter days .Decided on a electric foam e .Narrowed it down to either a Wot 4 foam e or the Acro Wot foam e .So what is the best foame the Wots 4 foam e or the Acro wot foam e So what is the verdict Wot 4 or Acro Wot (foam e )

Think I have found the problem .Check all the solder joints to the two esc and found a bad solder joint on the esc with the bec connected .Re done all the solder joints and it seems all OK Now I have to fly it and hope that was the problem 🤞.If not it could be an expensive flight 🤔

Just maiden my Freewing Mig 29 flys great but lucky for me on the second flight on landing it lost all radio .Check both lipo and they had 34% left in both lipos .Put it on the bench and the Mig has an intermediate fault .One minute the radio is fine then no radio and signal lost then reconnected the lipos and the radio returns and all is fine .Changed receiver and still have this problem .So receiver us fine .So could I have a faulty BEC ? I am at lost to what the problem is Can not fly the Mig 20 until I sort this out .Any one have any idea what is causing this and should I get a new BEC 🤔

Might have to see how much 5 lts of 10% is at SMC is then
