Thanks yes that's where I downloaded the update studio. I've tried it on windows 10 and 11 pcs with the same result... It gets as far as applying the file to the tx then stops. Obviously the USB comms are OK as it identifies the tx type. The screen image of the failure is here

I have a problem with my Mz24. I downloaded the latest GR firmware update software and it downloads the latest file but can't apply it through usb to the tx. Windows 10 seems to have the come port open but the bootloader does not open so the firmware does not complete. Any ideas? I'd like to update to 5he Mz24 Pro firmware but not sure if it's possible?

Yes There was a little lifting of film edges so I covered that area in more durable silver gloss text and painted the inner engine bay with silver solarlac to be extra fuel proof. I probably have the engine mounts ready to install.

Thanks All for great tips. I ordered 12 rolls from Duncan's medi supplier. Works out at £1.60 each. -
This is getting expensive. Does anyone use alternatives successfully?

That's how I found it in Poland! Clever stuff thanks
-
Many thanks that's it exactly. I found them on the Polish Amazon site but not in UK. It is indeed from a big RC vehicle

A better picture of what I'm trying to find.

Thanks for the reply. I know about all links. They are not the type I'm asking about. I need one where a 3mm rod goes through the centre of the ball and is locked onto the rod with a grub screw.
-
This is a ball joint with a grub screw to lock it to a 3mm rod. I need to buy similar but can't work out what it's called or who sells them. The one I need has the normal ball joint at the other end set at right angles to the locking ball joints axis. The 2 joints are usually in 2 parts joined by a threaded rod. Any help would be appreciated!

Sorry for cross purposes. I'm on the Archer SR8 Pro so maybe it's different. It has an update 2.1.14 from July 2023. SR10 pro is the same I think. Using Ethos on X20
-
Yes apparently it was a safety feature not to do self testing in the air.
-
I believe that if the receiver is updated to the latest firmware the self test mode is no longer activated on Ch 12 . It is enabled in the device config script from the X20

Ok good tip and worth trying on a test piece. I checked my paint stock and have solarlac in white black yellow and silver in 110ml tins plus 3 tins prymol and 1 clear coat ( price labels £3.50 ) so I may be able to use these. Wish I had red! Found only violet and heather in stock. Not most popular colours!

Anyone experimented with Hammerite Smooth? Relatively cheap and certainly works well on outdoor rusty metal. As it uses MEK as solvent it may be fuel proof?
-
Any way to remove blushing? I have a wots wot nylon and dope covering which is a bit bushy. I now use anti bloom thinners which help a bit.
-
I buy up solarlac if I find it lurking in hobby shops. I have silver red black and yellow 250ml tins.

I'm wanting to paint Solartex. The basic colour is white. What's the best type of paint for brushing for a masked area? It will need to be fuel proof. I'm looking at coloured cellulose dope, enamel or acrylic possibly with a clear polyurethane fuel proofed. I also need to be able to get Solartex to adhere to itself. Is it best to apply an extra heat sensitive glue?
-
Small items were all good and posted nicely. Not the cheapest but accurate descriptions. Probably for closer buyers worth considering for used airframes
