  1. Yes some transmitters have an internal battery, my old JRs for instance.
  2. I doubt if you'll be counting notches you'll be concentrating on flying. As long as the motor starts smoothly and goes controlably to full throttle it shouldn't be an issue. I have failsafe to centre controls and motor shuts off ( which is set when binding on my Dx spektrum)
  3. Learner

    Project mancave

    Just Google rc plane and anything that comes up Totos got in stock, or probably on order😍
  4. Why do you want the throttle trim all the way down?
  5. I wouldn't worry about the motor not working till 3rd click as long as you have full range. Doesn't the failsafe set automatically when you bind with the throttle at 0 and rest of sticks at centre, take prop off, put throttle at 1/2 and turn off transmitter. Should stop motor.
  6. No sorry, I've no experience with that heli, Paul might have a better idea I would think. You could fly without but the canopy helps with orientation. Are you anywhere near a heli shop to compare?
  7. Put the normal skids on, try and get a standard canopy and see what it flies like before thinking about fitting bodyshell. Spares will be difficult to find. whats your heli experience? one heavy landing could wreck the body and it could be a complete waste of time.
  8. Flex innovations I think. they do some really nice stuff, but not cheap. (Don't tell your wife that I told you)
  9. Don't tell him Mark! He's got itchy fingers, he's got enough for the next 10 yrs already😜
  10. Ah you pressed the Gizmo instead of the Doofar. You now have to retake the test and pay a £50 fine!
  11. Thanks a new club member thought because he passed his A after that, he didn't need to take rcc. Just needed to clarify.
  12. If as you say everyone has to take the test what is the relevance of the 30/12/20.
  13. Did you do the rcc test before your A, as that was an option. Or did you opt to answer the mandatory questions included in the A test.
  14. It says if you passed before 30/12/20 you have to take a test, if you have to take a test after that date as well why not just say all members have to take the test!
  15. I have an A,B,Rcc and flyer ID, just wondered why it says "BMFA members who passed an Achievement Scheme A or B test before 31/12/2020 are no longer entitled to be issued a Flyer ID and must pass the BMFA RCC or CAA DMARES test". It doesn't say anything about after that date and ,as they say "I'm asking for a friend".
  16. Don't want to complicate things further, or give anyone any ammo. But If you passed your A or B after 31/12/20, how do you stand with flyer ID?
  17. You just don't want the John Smiths getting to cold😉
  18. If I spent that much on a shed,and I told my missus I wouldn't use it because it was to cold, I'd be living in it!
  19. One man's basic is another man's palace🤣
  20. After all that money spent, Wouldn't a heater be a worthwhile purchase?
  21. The Caa keep changing the goalposts and the Bmfa have made mistakes trying to keep up. But I think it's some Bmfa members making it more complicated than it needs to be. Plenty are having no problems. They also have the option of just doing the Caa test.
  22. Is it really that simple? What if? How about? But if you read this it says! my mate hasn't got one! And not forgetting, why should I, I didn't have to years ago!!😉
  23. Maybe "Because it has a USB output socket and I can recharge my phone, tablet, Powerbank and laptop with it. That way I don't waste the charge in any fully charged but unused batteries at the field or indoor flying."
