Bob, thats a big aerial you have there! 35Mhz. Could it be interference from two switch mode bec`s? Sometimes one is enough to cause problems and you have doubles of everything.Trying to keep maximum separation may be difficult for you.
-
Bob, another thing you could try is another Transmitter, your problem seems to be affecting both motor systems, could it be a dirty or bad track on that stick axis? Maybe try driving it with a servo tester or from a different channel BUT be aware you will have to make sure stick is held low when switching on or the motor may start up - but I think the hobbywing series have safeguards to prevent it.

Yes please David, I really need something to cheer me up.

Tx Upgrade and Spektrum Reliability
Mal Quelch replied to Eifion Herbert's topic in All Things Model Flying
I was going to suggest a dirty on/off switch in the Tx during switch off, thus failing to save settings. Loose cell did just that it seems. P.S. I never took to spektrum so am not a user. -
I am getting used to the differences now and not found anything to dislike so far. One suggestion though, long long ago you could set to go to the last post in a thread( i`m pretty sure). As it stands at the moment you have to scroll all the way down to get to it. When you get there and find just a `smiley` or a +1 it gets a bit frustrating, especially if you are catching up on a few days worth. It would be much easier to scroll up from the last post to where you were last. What do others think?
-
Joe / Alan, just a thought but have you eliminated a bad or dirty track on your throttle channel on your transmitter? That could cause the same symptoms.

My copy came at the end of june and I had a cursory scan through before rushing to QA hospital in Portsmouth concerning my Father. As a result I havent been on here for some time. I have been wondering which section to ask this question, having searched and seen no prior reference. Page 16 Photo `Steve Carr`s Extra 260` Whats with the 4 cell battery on the tail skid?

Andrew, On the plan do you have two wings (L&R) or are they superimposed such that you build one at a time over the same drawing? If that is the case are you expected to build a particular wing first and could that explain it? Mal

Yes please - me too. Shame there is no RCM&E hat up for grabs! (hint hint)

Yes please, anything will do nicely thanks

Yes please - pick me something nice! -
Hi all, This may not be the same problem but i have had spinner run out also. Not only with this type fitting but also with collet type. Using APC `style` Electric props. In my case I found that when tightening the prop the raised prop size (8x4 10x6 etc) on the front boss , being on one side, stopped the spinner tightening up level. The prop ran true but the spinner appears off centre. Might be worth a look ? All I did was face the lettering off level and it was fine. You could try tightening say a nut, or stack of washers in place of a prop and see if it changes anything? Simple I know but worth checking. Mal

Yes please - it`s got to be worth a try!
