I thought about that but decided against as sometimes I am flying fast at low throttle (steep dive). I couple gain to gear, since I'm never flying fast with the gear down.Freewing A-10 turbine conversion: http://fb.me/FreewingA10TurbineConversion

Yeah, if anything, you want to adjust gain based on speed, not throttle. Which either requires IAS telemetry or manual switch throws.

Good points. I still have gain on a knob to adjust as needed. I wonder if you can mix it with a gps telemetry or actual airspeed sensor...Freewing A-10 turbine conversion: http://fb.me/FreewingA10TurbineConversion

Ordered a TV unit from RCcastle dec 17. Came in 0n jan 19 packaged very well and undamaged. The only minor disappointment is that the decals applied to the stock exhaust are not on the TV unit. I know that would add to the cost so I'm happy enough. Hope to have it installed and in the air soon. I wanted to buy from Motion but with no idea of how many units coming in and no pre order i was worried i wouldn't get one this round.Still flying P.15, avanti(#2), mig 21, yak 130 70mm(#2), f35, f9f panther, a10 64mm, F8 crusader/ PA ultimate amr /HK skipper, durafly dh vampire, p 51,spit mk24, corsair, flybeam/ BH f86 50mm, deltawing 50mm/ HH su 26 mm,umx pitts,umx sbach, blade nano cp s,blade 450x, inductrix 200, inductrix pro, umx yak 54,umx f27 fpv/ electrifly 4s L39/ flyzone beaver/ volantix asw 28, /dynam B26

I have the same issue. Check to make sure the grub screws holding your landing gear are tight. One of mine were loose and the right gear was getting caught on the door when the gear came up. They still sometimes fail to close completely if I’m at full throttle when I bring up the gear but it reduced the incidence of it occurring.
Originally posted by TS8103 View PostHas anyone had any issues with the Gripen main geer doors not closing completely? The gear appear to be straight and the I adjusted the ball links. However, the doors do not want to seem to want to close completely any more.
Thanks,

Copy-paste from RCG:
I adressed this early in the thread.
In addition to what has been commented already (pins coming loose and causing the struts to pivot), the strut design is weak where the wire that interacts with the door closing mechanism attaches to the strut, as Freewing made 4 holes there, reducing the cross-sectional area and causing the strut to bend there on hard landings. Oftentimes it is not very visible at first glance but you may notice your struts are bent at that particular section on close inspection. If that is so, take them out, bend them back straight and 'maybe' you get the doors to close again.
I say maybe because first time this happened I managed to solve it this way but the second time I only reduced the problem, not totally resolve it. Wish Motion/Freewing provided better struts.

For all the people griping about delays in delivery:
SINGAPORE — A critical shortage of containers is driving up shipping costs and delays for goods purchased from China.
The pandemic and uneven global economic recovery has led to this problem cropping up in Asia, although other parts of the world have also been hit. Industry watchers said desperate companies wait weeks for containers and pay premium rates to get them, causing shipping costs to skyrocket.
This affects everyone who needs to ship goods from China, but particularly e-commerce companies and consumers, who may bear the brunt of higher costs.
