  1. Hi Can you tell me please if a 8 channel receiver will work with a 7 channel transmitter .
  2. panic over tried a another receiver works ok with that something weird gone wrong with thw one I was using .
  3. Hi I don't know what I've done but I was trying to adjust the aileron travel when the aileron suddenly stopped reponding and I find it has moved to the rudder stick and vice versa . I have tried doing a reset but to no avail. If anyone is familar with programming this TX I would be greaful for your advice.
  4. Thanks for advice no not starting out just getting old slow reactions! nearly 80 now. Joe
  5. Hi I was on the point of ordering one of these when I read David Ashby's review in this months mag. I am now very confused ! He says to start with the Cof G at 78mm to start and move it forwards to get more penetration. I always understood you should start with it forward to give greater stability when learning and move it back later to be more sensitive and add weight to increase penetration.can someone explain please .Have I got things all wrong?
  6. I fly mode2,  in the midlands, in the midlands part self taught part with instructor
  7. Gorilla glue seems a good possibility I will give it a try as well as Rocket foam safe Ca
  8. No I haven't tried a hot melt gun it seems to be my best option I will have to get one.Thanks.
  9. Hi ,does anyone know of a glue for foam models that does not give off fumes I've become allergic to Ca, UHU Por, Evostick ,Etc.
  10. I have just purchased a Century Mosquito mini heli does anyone know how to correct yaw on these? it continually turns left full right trim isn't enough to correct it so I have to hold some right stick all the time to fly it. the receiver unit does not have a balance pot like the Lama does. The motors don't seem very good the heli tipped over and although I shut the throttle almost immediatly the top motor burnt out.
  11. You are probably right Jan but my point was the difficulty of buying any, Incidently my NiMi cells are Multiplex   not a rogue manufacturer ! and the LiPo ones I bought are definitly better.
  12. Thanks Bruce I had not heard of this firm, packs are too big but it's worth knowing  for other packs in the future. I have now bought a 2s LiPo and after charging I tried discharging on a lamp load and was very suprised to find that  the on load voltage was higher and stayed at the level longer than my 9.6V  NiMi. even though the nominal voltage was much lower.  When it stops raining I'll go and fly
  13. NiMi packs already seem to be getting unavailable I've been trying to get some 9.6V 1500mH packs for my easy glider no one has any, Steve Webbs tried to order some from Multiplex but they did'nt have any , Looking at the various retailers on the webb hardly any lists NiMi packs or cells at all Puffin list some but are always out of stock when I try to order any. How to other modelers cope ? a 2s pack is only 4.7V so I would be very down on power and a 3s pack is too thick to fit in the battery compartment and would probably be too much for the motor anyway. I have several other models that use 8.4V packs so this is going to be a big problem for me.
  14. Thanks Eric done that now hovers fine. I was trying to hover nose in when I crashed it , not easy!
