  • I did some messing and I’ve managed to get the flaps to move on the monitoring page but IRL they still just twitch

    • A body of mine says that there are problems with the Left ESC going bad?

      Motor left motor is not running and I'll get a new ESC (I'M assuming there's nothing wrong with the motor) but my question is: is it a calibration issue or bad hardware?

      Thx

      • Guys - I just got an OV10 and want to it up in Vietnam VMO-2 colors. Can anyone tell me when the white top wing markings were put on? I have seen one model with them from 1971.

        anyone know when the marking was switched from most of the top wing to painting the whole wing white?

        • Two questions from a newbie. One - Where is the receiver mounted in order to set up gyro? Two - Is it possible to use a y servo cable to connect the flaps and allow for a bind plug also - for a six channel receiver. This would eliminate unplugging the flap connection in order to bind the receiver. Appreciate any helpful answers. Thanks

            Graphics by Callie, and some waterslides I made myself.

            Civilian pilot and observer are a mash up of a figure from Thingiverse and another couple from CGTrader. Insignia and patches are waterslide decals printed on a laser printer and cut to size by a cricut vinyl cutter.

            And finally the fuselage is getting its stripes. I'm doing one at a time to keep the masking simple. Second stripe and black pin stripes tomorrow.

            Next up will be the booms


            I'm looking forward to when the canopy is back in stock so I can finish her up.

            Can I ask how you did your pin stripes?
