Nonproblem soldering heavy guage wire, I don't buy connectors i make them. I'm surprised they don't sell the model pnp as advertised... but hay ho I'll make one.

I really didn't want to risk damage to the model by removing the bottom if they've sent the wrong one...

As I said there are 8S batteries. They do tell you that you will need an adapter and they even give you a link. I can't wait to hear your next complaint, that you may need to adjust the push rods? I'm kidding to some extent, welcome to the forums.

Requires:

• 5 Channel radio (6 for thrust reversing) - select a minimum 5 channel radio from our Aircraft Radio Collection
• 5 Channel receiver - select a minimum 5 channel receiver from our Aircraft Receiver Collection
• TWO 4 Cell 14.8V 5000 mAh LiPo batteries with EC5 connector - we recommend Admiral Pro 5000mAh 4S 14.8V 60C LiPo Battery with EC5 Connector Multi-Pack (2 Batteries) - OR -
  ONE 6 Cell 22.2V 5000 mAh LiPo battery with EC5 connector AND ONE 2 Cell 7.4V 5000 mAh LiPo with EC5 connector - EPR50006 AND EPR50002E
• EC5 2-to-1 series adapter - BenchCraft EC5 2 to 1 Series Adapter with 10 Gauge Silicone Wire
• 6 Cell compatible battery charger - select a minimum 6 cell (6S) charger from our Charger Collection

eed the adapter.

Both my 6 and 8 came with the blue.

The ESC should be Blue ( hopefully) and just look inside the bottom cheater if the housing ( EDF ) is black that’s 6s if it’s metal ( silver ) it’s 8s

[Andy B]

No need to be a dick about it... You are completely missing my question and focusing on trying to belittle me with your vast experience... of course I'm messing with you too 🙂

I have it all set up with canards independent of the control board.

The esc is blue, so looks like it's the 8s, great news.

I am somewhat struggling with reverse set up, I've set reverse on the esc and have end points matched on throttle and the reverse switch, but can't get it to reverse.

I can't find any clear set up tutorials online either so will just leave it unplugged.

On both my 6 and 8S the ESC was blue. Looking back I don't see a question I didn't answer. Looks like I was also the first to respond...

I was wrong about the only difference being the motor, as shortround says the housing for the fan is silver on the 8s and black on the 6s.

For reverse you need to plug the yellow signal wire in a spare receiver slot and assign a switch to that channel. If a 2 position switch +100 and -100 for the travel. If a 3 way you'll want +100/+100/-100, not 0 in the middle. You don't do any thing with the throttle, not sure what you mean by matching the throttle.

I can share my set up if your on a Spektrum radio

You may not want to fly on my rates but for reverse etc should be golden

[Andy B]

No i fly on a core, but thanks for the offer... all good its set up to the manual other than the canards.

If you've any tips from the stock set up, I'd appreciate that.

That what I have, -100 +100 on throttle, -100 +100 on the 2 position switch, but it doesn't work.

[Evan D]

The reverse came on as default on all mine. Maybe double check that?

Yeah did that, 1 beep then 4 beeps and accept... not really an issue, it slows up nice.

But would be cool to get it working

The nose gear steering input on my multi control box stopped working after 6 flights. I bypassed it with a y cable strait to the receiver (along with rudder) to get steering back. Has anybody else had this issue? Should I worry about this being a sign that the multi control box is going bad?
