John, what servos? With the information given so far, yes. I too have bought a used airframe. Running 2S Li-Po unregulated. Now with 29 flights of my own. Hitec HS7954 (5), HS7950 (1). -Snuts-

Thank's again. That is exactly what my screen looks like, less the (blocked) "NORM". Truth be known, I am waiting on a second 12X that I bought used. Next week I will have a second, to compare with.

RE: Aztech / Slipstream RV-8 30cc assembly
Thom. I installed one 90Oz servo to operate my elevator. I would recommend a single servo, more than enough with your 26cc. I beleave that will be about the best engine size for a RV8. As I am very happy with my DLE20. Hope this helps, -Snuts- Welcome to R/C Universe!

[quote]ORIGINAL: eddieC Alle, so you trust hearsay (what your bud says) over what you read (as in manufacturers directions)? Charging at .03A-.05A is not half-rate BTW, perhaps you meant .03-.05C, or 30%-50% of rated capacity?  That would make sense. Also, using your logic, we shouldn't believe any of your post.

RE: How do you secure your plane when starting?
May be a small photo. I have used a long loop of 3/4inch cord, horse leash, for several years. Chocked around a post, or often over my trailer ball @ private field. Many others have adopted my teather. I always leave it out on the flightline at funfly's. -Snuts- Note that I lift the chock up above the fuse then cross each other infront of the vertical stab.

RE: Spektrum Confused!!!!!!!!
Additional good news. The satellite from the AR6210, although marked "X" on the case supports both DSMX and DSM2. You can simply plug this satellite into the second external satellite port on your AR921. A full re-bind will be required. If you find this to be true, and good advice, I might add that a data logger will also give you some peace of mind. again, -Snuts- !! CORRECTION!! DSM2

RE: JR 9303 Flaperon Programming
Make sure you do a full model reset first: 2 Aileron Channels, Optional D/R Switch/Flight Mode Switch, Optional Retracts This example identifies the steps necessary to program a basic 5- or 6-channel setup where the ailerons are controlled by 2 separate channels and Dual Rates/Exponential curves are controlled either by individual switches for Aileron, Elevator and Rudder, or via a single Flight Mode switch. It may optionally be equipped with retractable landing gear as the 5th channel. RECEIVER CONNECTIONS RX CHANNEL SERVO 1 Throttle Throttle 2 Aileron Right Aileron 3 Elevator Elevator 4 Rudder Rudder 5 Gear (if equipped) Retract (or 2 retract servos connected via "Y" harness) 6 Flap (AUX1) Left Aileron 1. Select a Model Memory using Model SEL in the SYSTEM Menu. 2. Reset the Model Memory using MDL Reset in the SYSTEM Menu. 3. Enter a Model Name using MDL Name in the SYSTEM Menu. 4. Set the Modulation Type to match the receiver using MODULAT in the SYSTEM Menu. 5. Select the FLAPERON Wing Type by accessing Wing Type in the SYSTEM Menu. 6. Inhibit the Flap TRIM in the Devic.SEL function of the SYSTEM Menu. 7. If the Flaperons are to also be used as Flaps, Set the OUT line for FLAP to SYS in the Devic. SEL Menu. This will cause the FLAP SYS function to appear in the Function List. If the ailerons are not going to be used as flaps, Inhibit the Flap Channel in the Devic.SEL function. 8. Plug servos into the RX and check servo directions. Reverse servos as may be necessary using REV.SW in the Function List. 9. Install servo arms so they are 90 degrees to the linkage. Use Sub Trim in the Function List to fine-tune the arms so they are 90 degrees to the linkages. 10. Adjust travel of each servo in both directions using TRVL ADJ. In the Function List. 11. If Dual Rates are to be combined on 1 switch, access the Devic.SEL function in the SYSTEM Menu and Activate Flight Modes. Also Set Dual Rates to FM in the same function. 12. If the Flaperons are also to be used as flaps, Access Flap SYS in the Function List to set flap deflections, elevator compensation, and Flap Delay. 13. Set up Dual Rate and Exponential curves using D/R & EXP in the Function List. 14. If throttle response is not linear, set up a throttle curve using THRO CURV in the Function List. 15. If Aileron Differential is required, access AIL DIFF. In the Function List and set values. 16. If Flaps are to be used and Elevator to Flap mixing is desired for tight loops, access ELE􀃆FLP M in the Function List and set throws. 12. Set up a count down timer using TIMER to help prevent running out of fuel while flying. 13. After test flying and fine-tuning the programming, use COPY in the Model SEL function contained in the SYSTEM Menu to make a backup copy of the program.
