No, the new 03 unit has an internal memory and it will record OK if I switch it on manually.

I have recently purchased the new DJI 03 air unit for a quad running on a Matek flight controller. I'm using DJI V2 goggles. Everything is working as it should except that the air unit does not auto-record. There is no menu when in the 03 FPV mode in the goggles for auto-record as there is in the DJI FPV goggles mode. It records fine when I manually press the record button on the goggles. I am wondering if this function just isn't available when using the 03 air unit with a non-DJI drone. Has anyone else had experience of this?

I have an Eagletree Vector setup using an Eachine TS832 video transmitter. This is a new setup and there Is a constant flickering of the on screen display to the point where it is unusable. The same video tx works fine without the Vector. Does anyone have any suggestions as to resolving this problem?

Thanks everyone for the replies. My radio is a Futaba T8FG. I'll connect to channel 5 and follow your advice. My idea for fun is to drop a toy soldier parachutist over our flying field.

I have a Multiplex Funcub XL that has bomb bay doors that can be opened with a servo operated by a transmitter switch. How do I set the servo movement so that flicking the switch opens the doors? I have a Futaba radio. Edited By Ross McWhirter on 05/08/2018 22:48:30

That's great, thanks. Looking to maiden it tomorrow.

I have bought a Volantex Ranger 757-4 with 1.4metre wingspan. The printed manual with the model says the c of g is 52mm back from front edge of wing but in a manual I downloaded before I received the model it is stated as 70mm. Anybody have experience of this plane and know the correct c of g?

Thanks for the replies. I only intend to use low rates so will go with the 20 degrees and try the same expo as my Shark trainer - hopefully at the weekend - and see how it goes.

I have built up a Sebart Angel s30 and am looking to set the rates. I believe the settings quoted in the Sebart instructions which are in percentages need some kind of conversion so you can set the rates on a Futaba radio. An example is the ailerons in the Sebart booklet say for low rates they should be 20 degrees up and 20 degrees down with expo set at 40%. Any assistance would be appreciated.

I am looking at the E flite P47D as tested in RCME this month. Can anyone tell me if you need to use a Spektrum radio with this or would it work with a Futaba radio?

I'm not putting them away for the winter - only till next weekend! I didn't used to but have started putting my LiPos on storage mode between weekends.

After flying today my batteries are sitting at a fraction under 3.8 volts per cell. Can I just store them at that without having to put them on to a storage charge cycle on my charger?

Thanks for the advice on braking. I've just got the Mythos and wonder if having the brake off would help slow the plane on landing? Once I get better at landing I could turn it on at soft setting?

Thanks everyone. Yes, I use my timer and land as soon as the beeper goes. It was when I tried to save a new setting on the ESC it wouldn't save until I chose a voltage. I'll set it to 3.5 volts and I'll switch off the braking.

I have a Hacker X70 speed controller on a Mythos 50e. On advice of fellow flyers I am changing the braking from hard to soft. I managed this OK using the Hacker USB cable and download programme. However I couldn't save a new setting without setting a voltage under the title "reduce power below". I selected 2 volts being the lowest option. Can anyone please advise the best setting for this?
