If you read the info on the Admiral 6ch w/gyro it says that it will help stabilize with flight . And I know it does but recently I had a major issue . I've bought 7 so far and used a couple ok with no problems . Until I put it in a tail dragger w/mix for the ailerons. Flew very tail heavy . CG was triple checked and the battery was moved so far forward not sure how I got up without nosing over on takeoff . This happened in two planes both with NEW rx's and two different rx's also . Point being is I didn't move from one to the other plane . I lost one plane , can't retrieve it . Way up in the woods . The other I did get down but it was a ugly landing .
Did some inquiring with a couple of other pilots and there were some flap issues as well . Crashes did happen and these were very accomplished pilots . I called and spoke to a Rep. , he was very helpful and I ended up getting a credit for the two rx's . This is not what I was looking for , there is a issue somewhere and I only want to figure it out . I did and always do video the flights and they were looked at . I called again yesterday and was inquiring about the issue , I was told " it's a cheap gyro and is mainly for the Panic or Recovery feature . Just turn it off " . maybe it just wasn't going to work in those planes . What did you just tell me . Not only did I spend over $300 to by a new radio so I could use these new receivers I have pulled out all the systems I have in all my planes to switch over . Both of these planes had already been flown , by me , with no issues and the other system . I know the planes were fine .
We need to know , I need to know if there are some restrictions when using these . I do have in another plane , it's a tric setup , and NO issues . I am pulling them out of anything with flaps . Also was told " well you would be better with the Eagle setup vs this if that is what you are looking for . My understanding is it is to work like the AS3x system
The gyro mode can easily be changed remotely from your radio even without using a channel. The Motion RC firmware allows the gyro-receiver to work with 6 channel radios flying 6 channel planes while still retaining the ability to remotely change the gyro mode from the radio without taking an extra channel. The available gyro modes are off, stability, or stability plus. Any two of these three modes can be controlled remotely - you simply pick which of the two modes you want available. The default modes are stability and stability plus. The stability mode functions like the normal 3 axis gyro we are all familiar with. Stability plus mode fully utilizes the 6 axis gyro with a "Panic Recovery" feature. For those with an 8+ channel radio, we've now added the ability to control the master gain from your radio using AUX3. That is from the website .
Don't do well with smoke blown up my butt when I have a concern , Makes me very angry . I have 6 pages of orders where I have made purchases in the last four n half years . Wondering if I should continue …….
I will not mention any names because that's not fair .
Bryan , and yes feel free to call me you have my number
