Absolutely! Awesome man!

Just wanted to let you guys know Motion took good care of me on the B-26 :) This is why they have 99.999% of my RC business and always will :Cool:

Decided to paint the tips of the stab and wings to match the tail colors.... Will help me see it! I hope... Did the prop hubs too.

I really like that livery.

Well I was hoping to catch some video of flying through Harvey, but my recorder failed. :/

That is an easy fix, too bad the airframe isn't.

One of the ESC terminal ends that plug on to the motor came loose, all that was holding it was the heat shrink, it looks like both the wire and terminal were "tined" good but had pulled apart to the point were only a very small pin point was holding it on.

Oh wow, yet another thing to check carefully for sure. :(

Watch replacing anything in the center section of the wing, every connection has been glued to the point you have to destroy the connector in order to disconnect any of the servo leads.

Rifleman glad to hear of your success. Tired iron im glad to hear motion stepping in to help. I had a similar failure on my FW p38 at 40ish days (waited a few weeks before assembly)It seems if your in that 30 days or less window from delivery they will work with you. After that (understandably) your on own.My second flight i had one of the mains stick half way up. The good news is that i was able to land(gently) without collapse and just enough clearance to not bust the prop. After landing i cycled gear again and they retracted normally(i hate ghosts). They have not failed on the bench since. I have found no loose connections up to the gear itself. I will be contacting motion to see about replacement as i am a little gun shy about flying it again. In retrospect with the intial 12(?) Second delay dynam gear has, i cycled the gear to rapidly. If there is a next time i will give a good 15 count between attempts.

So to cover what was done with mine to fly how it was meant to with 4000 and 5000 packs... First there was no tail weights. Second cg point (for mine) was 65mm. Third was the 1/8" wedge up to the trailing edge of the horizontal stab. 4th make sure the wing screw anchors are glued to the bottom of the slots they sit. With all that checked you should have a nice smooth flight.

Martin from Motion contacted me and is going to try and help me out on this one if it's an actual motor or ESC issue so I'm going to tear into it.

Excellent!

[quitcherbitchen]

Knowing Dynam I am betting on the motor as the culprit.

[TiredIronGRB]

With mine flying the 5000 and 4000 on landing she actually felt floaty. On flaring she rose about 3 feet before settling in. But wow what s smooth dang near perfect flying plane.

[rifleman_btx]

Fair enough,and trust me I do know about those damn part failures. It does give a nasty taste in the mouth for the preticular model for a while

[TiredIronGRB]

That's the second nose retract and it's pretty busted up....I'm just going to hide it under the table for a while.

[rifleman_btx]

Common bro I got mine finally flying on rails, even with a heavier battery. Plus its a B26 man don't let her die like that.

Tigrb...............DON'T LET IT WIN !!!!!!!!! :Angry:
