Originally posted by ArnoldT View PostAfter my 6s EF's third flight the connector is so hot it melted the foam and the battery wires are very very hot. I used a clampmeter to do ground static amps test and it's 145A. I understand that static is higher than in-flight amps but my other 90mm EDF is only drawing static 120A. I changed the motor timing to 0 degrees and I still get the same 145A. Did anyone do a ground amps test on your 6s EF? Thanks.
i am wondering if your throttle end points are -100 to +100 or set to a different value? i checked mine after i completed binding (i am using 8 channel spektrum) and mine was set as -120 and +100 (i don't know why/how low end was set at -120 while all my other planes are -100) .... wondering if you or anyone else ran into this.
Mine is stock 8s setup.

I am sad to report that when I opened the box today and started building my Eurofighter typhoon, I found the fuselage cracked due to shipping. On closer inspection I found the box damaged as well. This is the first time this has happened in the 5 years I have been using motion! My ticket number is #T869105 and I hope my issues gets fixed. I leave you with some pictures of the damage 😭 I am completely heart broken 💔

Good luck with that poll. For years there have been a vocal minority or sometimes even a majority about decals on specific aircraft and motion has done us the favor some times and sold plain jane versions (example the ghost gray F/A-18C) without decals but then FreeWing started putting specific gray schemes on that. On other aircraft there used to be a couple of scheme decals in the kit you could choose from and those now come with one scheme applied. On others we asked to remove specific decals such as the Mirage tiger eyes. Very seldom has there been multiple versions, decal and no decal. Very few. It cost a lot to do this and also maintain parts for multiples.
For the EF Motion decided to ask FW to leave off the tail tiger but they left all the other decal on so it wasn't good for the majority that wanted it left alone with the tiger applied and it wasn't good for the rest that wanted a non Spanish scheme.
My vote, leave it like the rest of the world got it with the tiger and everything on the plane.

I suspect the vast majority leave on the stock livery of aircraft so having decals pre-applied would benefit the majority of consumers. Before I even order a plane, I get Callie working on either a custom set of graphics or one she has already done. This one is no different, she's about 3 weeks into some custom graphics and it will be another couple before I get them and I already have all the electronics and paint ready. Ordering the plane this weekend. Saving the best for last. 🤣Hugh "Wildman" Wiedman

So even the great hobbyists like Hugh who do some awesome custom art are supporting us newbies.
so it’s 3 votes for pre applied decals and 0 for no decals
Jamie who made this choice at motion what was the rational why does motion make us suffer ? Can you please communicate our dismay to motion management ?
