Aros, hah,

I bought one these because Tamms wants to try it out.

Her reasoning is "it's yellow" and "pretty".

I am a bit nervous about being her IP, but we've gotten through worse.

It is a bit small for a trainer, but with the gyro setting these are hard crash.

With the Mustang, I've found gyro on, just let go of the sticks, and add a little up elevator gets you out of most issues.

Wind will be a factor with the biplane configuration.

Looking forward to it.

Best, LB

Can this be used with a 4in1 module in a Radiomaster or can a Spektrum remote receiver be used as in the small warbirds?

I bought one and flying it with a Lemon RC DSMP receiver. I need info on how to set up the switches. I seen a video giving this info but I can't remember where. The model flys well. But, when I turn off the gyro it goes vertical to the point of stalling so I need to get the radio setup proper to get the most from the model. Any help would be great. Thanks In Advance.

Has anyone changed out the servo's in this model or any of the small EPP Skynetic's? I find that the servo's have a hard time returning to the neutral position, and it takes jogging (the rudder and elevator especially ) servo's to get them back in line..Itr's almost like the servo's don't have the torque to pull the control surfaces all the way back without hitting the stick a few times. I was planning to put in a couple of tiny servo's with a bit more torque to see if that helps. I checked the clearance of the servo arms and they don't seem to be binding on the inside of the fuse, and the control linkages look tight but the little buggers hang up when I center the sticks after using the elevator or rudder. Ailerons work perfect. I noticed the issue on the preflight and figured I'd try it anyway and was able to do a few laps of the field, but had to consistently tap the sticks to straighten her out after a turn and both control surfaces didn't want to center after,,,, I have a Stearman and a ME and they work perfect....It's just happening on this D.H. Tiger Moth.
Just curious if this is common with these little guys, and what servo's anyone has found that remedies this....

Thanks,
Randy
