All Working OK now with DXe and a 410 Rx seems the Microzone didn’t like the larger 40A ESC but works happily with the 20A ESC. many thanks to all who contributed advice 👍

When I use the new Spektrum Tx Rx it will prove your theory,I’m just waiting for a Spektrum Rx at the moment so watch this space! btw thanks for the imput

The Tx RX work with a Smaller Thumper and an XP2 20A in my Mini Super fine no problems The servos in the Super are Mini budget ones! The servos in the problem Aircraft are 3003’s and are new and work fine with a slave Battery. I have a DXe which is going to be used in the problem Aircraft with Spektrum Rx. So will test with this kit.Im waiting for a programme card to make sure the parameters are set ok before returning to supplier which is Steve Webb Models. servo shop,so shouldn’t be a problem.

Thumper 3536/08 and a XP2 40A and a 3S Overlander 2200Mah lipo I presume all these should work together.

All new gear including Batteries never been used any of it.

Posted by Peter Millward 1 on 10/06/2020 16:27:44: I recently fitted a Thumper 3536/08 and a XP2 40A and a 3S Overlander 2200Mah lipo All new into a model, I used a Microzone MC6C Tx with its dedicated Rx. When the servos are fitted if you use the servos the motor starts and runs constantly. The lead from Esc is in channel 3,servos are rudder/elevator in correct slots for use on same stick. if I remove and put in my Mini super using a 2836/08 motor and a XP2 20A With a 2s 2200Mah Overlander with same Microzone Tx Rx it all works fine? why and what is Happening ? I’m now going to use a Spektrum_Transmitter with the first model With Spektrum Rx. I have purchased a programme card for the XP2 so I know it’s in the correct settings.Also have the Bluetooth connector and the app. Thanks i

I would be surprised if it was faulty as it’s New, I’m sure it’s operator error,I’ll set it up correctly with the program card and a new Tx Rx system that’s going to be used with the Aircraft.

Posted by paul d on 10/06/2020 16:36:59: Totally unhelpful and tongue in cheek but it would never happen with a glow or diesel!...sorry couldn't resist.. Lol but the Aircraft will still be ok in 20 years and not a sticky mess in landfill 😉

No the servos either lock up or move without any imput from Tx

Sorry runs at full power.

Motor just sparks into life when servos start to move, if you don’t connect servos,motor will run ok on its own. I don’t think it’s set up properly. Hence the programme card. I was thinking the Tx /Rx wasn’t compatible with the set up as it’s a Budget one but works ok in the other Aircraft.So I’ll just use in the trainer.Was just worried that it may interfere with someone else’s gear,but as it’s running on a basic protocol no one at the club has such a basic TX 😂

Thanks seems to have worked. I have used Solartex before on a Telemaster 96” senior but that was 30 years ago and still using the Pifco mini Iron I bought at the time. Has a Rayon setting 😂

I have aquired a Quaker flash, covered in Solartex, It has never flown but is a few years old and in places the Solartex has lost its taughtness can it be tightened up in any way ? I have tried some gentle heat which has worked in some places.Any ideas or will it need replacing or patching.
