John,

Glad to hear it was something simple, luckily it did not fall too far to the ground.

FPV / Very worrying behaviour in Dublin

Just read about this in today's 'Mirror' paper. The aviation authority are investigating this incident.

Also a comment from the MACI saying they were not to pleased about this disregard for safety.

Keith, have checked everything over but it all seems fine and setup ok!

Bill, the speed controller is the 'HiModel' Fly 12A.


Just a bit of checking online and see that the speed controller is recommended for a 2-3cell lipo.....I have a one cell lipo 220mAh that i was using. Maybe this is the problem?  :?:

I have a two cell lipo at work I will get it tomorrow and try it tomorrow after soldering on some connectors.

I am having an issue with my motor on my electric extra, just setting it up for its maiden flight.

Firstly when i connect battery the speed controller beeps twice, then  i go full trottle and it beeps again, finally when i power down no beep.
It should start turning when i apply some trottle but nothing happens.

Any suggestions?

Bill it is the Extra you sold me, you may know the correct arming of the motor.

Thanks in advance

Anthony

Here is a picture of the model. Will have to wait a bit longer for its maiden flight.

Richard,

No I have not flown a DLG before. Most of my flying will be on the local football pitch so I wanted something else to try as I mainly use the easystar.

Glad to meet the NI Division on the slope on Saturday, at least you got some great weather on Sunday to fly. Will hopefully make it up to you for the fly in.

best regards,
