RE: Hydro-Foam by Michael Connally
Cheers mate! I think I'll take the advice and go to a local shop. I've been trying to hook up with a local club so will also give that a try. My after sales service will be non existant as I got this direct from Hongkong via ebay. Transatlantic travel has got a good bit cheaper, but not cheap enough! Ta. Razzyb

(Channels 1,2,3 connected) there's still the constant beeping. Cheers RazzyB

RE: Hydro-Foam by Michael Connally
Thanks. Yes they appear to be connected the right way. Throttle & Rudder in right positions on RX for sure. The ELEV & AILE on channels 1 and 2 are connected through the "beeper" (whatever the right name is) to the RX so couldn't check them directly but tried swapping those two around. I'd also changed the ESC to motor wires over as RogerRamjet suggested and changed the DIP switches on the TX which Greg Covey referenced in his recommended mods: http://www.fmadirect.com/evaluations/cba_rtf_boat/cba_rtf_boat.htm Grateful for any other thoughts! Cheers

RE: Hydro-Foam by Michael Connally
[size=5][b]Walkera Flying Boat 58 - ESC Startup Problems[/b][/size] Firstly thanks to RogerRamjet and Greg Covey for insights that have got me a long way towards getting my Walkera Boat airborne. I'm pretty new to these great RC Hydro's so it maybe my prob's an easy fix...... When I connect the fully charged LiPo battery ( transmitter is on with fresh batteries + full throttle) the ESC beeps continuously + all the servos go to max rudder and flaps. The transmitter and receiver are both labelled up the same (35.120 MHz - I'm in UK) but my guess is that the transmitter or receiver might be faulty. This is because the same beeping and servo movement happens when I connect the battery without the transmitter on. Any thoughts what it might be or will I have to try changing the transmitter? I don't know if it's relevant or not but the small cartridge in the back of the transmitter which is labelled as 35.12 has a label inside of "type 35-2" Cheers Martin Just in case you start to find the Flying Boats a bit tame dream of an RC version of this.....http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/4832254.stm
