Completed my build yesterday. Blue box was missing elevator cable and I by-passed straight to RX. I 3D printed the Zuni's from the files listed in this thread. Blue Box pictures show how I made connections. Can't wait till I have time to get it in the air!

Thanks, great spots to move the MCBe and receiver to.


Thanks

Well it worked better than I even thought it would. The inside is hollow with a nice platform area ready to use. Lots of room! Cut through 1/2 inch of remaining foam firewall, and access to the blue box area is achieved. 4 1/4 inches Of usable room in addition to another 5 inches in the rear section itself.

This has not been a smooth release....... The FW/MRC directions are sub par from other projects, but the price did not reflect the outcome.....I'm not disappointed about the product , only the journey to this point....

I’m in need of some wing pylons for the desert storm load out. Any ideas? I have the keyed adapters from some spare a10 parts so got those parts covered. Plane is sanded to remove all vent tits and ready for a base coat of primer white.

Hi Guys. Im using a spektrum AR-610 receiver. wheres eveyone putting there receiver in the bronco. thanks

[Nick7542]

There has been some confusion on how to wire the flaps using the provided tri-harness. The two outer flaps come into the blue MCB box through the ribbon cables. You take the male to male out put from the blue MCB box and insert it into the tri-harness instead of going straight to your RX. You then take the two inboard flap connections and also insert them into the tri-harness before running it straight to your receiver. In short: take all three cords labeled FLAP, insert them into tri-harness, and go straight to the RX with it.

I'm confused on the Bronco wiring. Can you describe how you connected the wiring to the blue box?

Just finished mine.

This shows the rear hatch on the full scale OV-10

[Dkurtzid]

Placing the receiver and their antenna(s) between the batteries and the wiring rats nest around the blue box is less than ideal from a signal reliability perspective. I’m thinking of making/cutting the center fuselage rear hatch and hollowing out the area behind the Blue box and wiring rats nest for the receiver and it’s rear facing antennas. Using the new rear hatch for access.

Papa here.....first the instruction manual is a little lacking. Please watch the assembly video that Motion has on their sight. The problems, the manual says nothing about when or how to attack all leads to the blue box. Second, is the flap Y- harness provided, Again Motion has provided instructions on how to install. That common sense thing, did not help me. I must be dump as a stump. Whoever wrote this manual sucks! Sorry Motion, but the Boozers always say we will tell the true. Manual need to be re-written or addendum page added to solve problems of assembly of this plane.

Paging Mr Grossman, paging Mr Grossman............

[Mightywarhoover]
