Wondering if somebody has experience something similar.
I have been flying this bird for the last 3 weekends and during the first flight, when I applied the flaps, the left wind dropped, deactivated them and controlled the airplane. Landed and checked the level of the flaps and they were perfect. After a couple of flights and some tests found out that when I give some power to the ducted fan, the servo move erratically creating the problem.
Took the wind down and checked connections. The connections for ailerons, retracts and flaps are made automatically when the wing is placed in position in the fuselage, tightened some connections holders and problem went away.
Flew it next weekend and immediately after taking off the airplane rolled to the left and crashed. Analyzing the failure found out that again, when powering the ducted fan to the max, the left aileron when up.
Looks like the electronics induce some interference to the servos when ducted fan is at high speed.
I already wrote to Horizon Hobbies and have no answer so far.
Please let me know your comments
