Official Freewing 64mm F-14 Tomcat Twin 64mm EDF Jet Thread

I would first calibrate the ESCs, assuming you haven't. The only other possibility is maybe one of the ESC servo connections is in backwards.

But pretty sure it's ESC calibration.

Hey Evan... es hat geklappt, nun laufen beide EDF's, dir sei Dank für den Hinweis.

Danke für den Hinweis, das habe ich noch nicht gemacht.... häufig sucht man gleich zu weit. Das könnte wirklich das Problem sein, ich werde schauen.

Ich habe Gestern in meiner neuen F-14 64mm den Empfänger installiert und nach dem Binden festgestellt, dass der Motor rechts keinen Muks macht, linker Antrieb ist in Ordnung, der rechte geht nicht. Kennt jemand den Grund oder hatte das auch? Ich muss jetzt rausfinden, ob es am Regler oder am Motor liegt.

[Evan D]

Understood.

[EDF-Jetpilot]

You got the 80mm not the 64mm....

oh aufgepasst.... das Foto ist die 80mm ja, aber ich habe die 64mm gemeint, die habe ich auch mit 2 Piloten bekommen, nur gerade kein Originalbild dabei gehabt. ;-)

Genau, ich spreche hier immer vom im Thread hier offiziellen twin 64mm Version. Sonst drücke ich dies klar aus. :-)

Bei meiner Lieferung von vor 14 Tagen (Schweiz) ist der RIO, also der "zweite Pilot" auch dabei... das hat mich sehr positiv überrascht!

Uh, where's the RIO?

I finally got so irritated with the gear/door sequencer taking 15+ seconds to get the gear down that I made an Arduino based sequencer that does it in 5 seconds.

Code available on request.

Flew the new modified spoiler and full span flap wings today. Flew great, didn’t notice any real difference in performance, but it looks cool.

Nice work! very cool functional scale detail

Hi All,

I had my maiden yesterday and following happened:

1 gyro wants to constantly autolevel, is there a another function I can apply?

2. the engines stopped multiple times to run during flight
, whether full throttle, half or low it randomly stopped working and came back within a second again … anyone experienced something similar??

Thank you,

Peter

1. I didn't like the stock gyro at all, so I bypassed it and use AS3X+ on my receiver Stock gyro seems to get very mixed reviews, some people love it, others are like me.

2. What battery are you using? Sounds like LVC. And do you have reverse thrust set up?

But if not, you run the yellow servo wires to the reciever right?

[kallend]

I still use the board for lights, flaps and sweep.

[Reptielenfreak]

yes.

So for my understanding


Yellow goed to the reciever using Y harnasses.
Red is removed?

[kallend]

So you bypassed the control board and put in the ar10360t?

yes.

For those of you who are using the SMC 5900 LIHV pack, can you share a photo of your battery placement? With mine as pictured, it balances at the marks on the fuselage, but the marks on the wings is extremely nose heavy. I have flown this thing about 5 times with 1 successful landing. For some reason, this thing is giving me a headache trying to find the right battery placement for proper cg. I don't want to give up on it yet. Thanks in advance.
