Thank you to all at SMC. Placed my online order on 15/05/2012. On 16/05/2012 they let me know what the shipping cost would be to Nigeria. I accepted and my New Transmitters left UK on 17/05/2012. The postman has just handed it to me.....I am a very happy man. Thank you once again SMC for great service!!!!

Thank you all, Gentlemen. I will have a go at it and let you know what the result is. Cheers

Thanks Ken. I have already moved the battery as far forward as possible, but nothing changes. Chris. When taking off -- as soon as the plane leaves the ground it pitches nose up severe, when i cut the throttle it goes nose down again --- it is like a see-saw effect: throttle up = nose up; throttle cut = nose down.....

Hi All you clever people...I have just finished an Foam Ultimate and set all up as to the manual. The CoG is ever so slightly forward. Took it for it 's maiden yesterday, but had to feed in a lot of "down elevator" for level flight. with all surfaces perfectly level, the plane is nosing up all the time. What have I done wrong/am I doing wrong? Any advise???

Hi Donald, Have a look at this website: RCFOAM.COM They have free plans for foamies and some links to additional plans websites.   Cheers

Thanks a lot guys, will use them. Cheers

Good day all, I have treated myself to an early X-mas present in a Piper Pawnee 15e. I have some of the above servos idle and was wondering wether these would be fine in my new plane?   Any advise would be appreciated.  

Has anybody made use of this rc supplier based in HK? They even advertise a UK contact number. I would like to know how reputable they are, for some of their prices are really good??   Any/all feedback welcome.   Cheers Kappie

Can someone please explain to me what is the differance between the US spec and the UK spec for TX's? I was going to buy a TX from ebay, but the seller said it was US spec???

Thanks Don, I always check back on my threads from time to time, just to see if there is not anybody else with some good advise.   Happy flying. 

Hi all--Out there. I have an E-flite Blade CP Pro-Mini Heli & I need some spares. It does not seem that there are any H/shops in the UK that carry these spares??? only for the Cx & Mcx. I am stuck out here in Nigeria and nobody in the US wants to ship any spares here. On the other hand, to get the stuff shipped to the UK and then out to me is 10x more expensive than the couple of parts I require. Does anybody know where I can get the Blade CP Pro spares in the UK???? Regards   Kappie

Hi Kevin, Have been trying to get onto the extreme helis website--but no joy. Can you give me the web address please. Cheers   Kappie

Hi there, The LED on the 4-in-1 controller of my E-flite Blade CP Pro does not stay green. As soon as I spin up just past half stick to go into hover, it starts to turn red. As soon as more throttle is given, the LED stays red. Is this normal?? If not--How do I fix this??   Thanks

Thanks Vinnie, I am converted!!!! Will check out the forum as well---Have a gud one. Kappie

Thanks very much guys. Alan B: You have it spot on--as confirmed by Vinnie. Timbo: I will most definately leave that one for later, but just a toy---No way, I am in for the long haul. Vinnie: Thanks man, have been wanting to get myself the Spekky DXi 6, but wanted someone to confirm that I really need it!!---if you know what I mean. Cheers guys.
