Topic: Throttle problems with my F15 EDFPosted: 27/Jan/2010 at 7:16pm |

I already put together this plane F15 EDF EPO plane), looks terryfic and enough powerful, but I need some help with the radio setup, because with my new Turnigy 2.4 Ghz module and reciver (8 ch) I cannot set up properly the throttle, when I connect all, the tailerons operates well, but the throttle stick in normal mode, made the ESC motor set to beep constantly and not operate, when I reverse the chanel, the ESC motor armed well but, it operates upside down, so the 0 throttle is on the up position stick (left stick) and full throttle is on full down. My radio is the Futaba 8U super, could somebody help me to fix this problem?

are your trims and subtrims all set to neutral. This can do it if the speedy is a little sensitive to those first few clicks of trim.

Ooh if this doesn't work, what we have to do on teh turbines, is when you arem it, you adjust the throttle trim fully back. then initiate start sequence by clicking up trim on throttle until lights change colour, Then you go through the other parts of the starting procedure like turning the motor and introducing propane etc. Thing is though, on the turbine it wont arm unless if it is at zero throttle, AND zero trim, try this too if the first suggestion doesn't work.

The reason it appears upside down is because Futaba throttle is opposite to most other radios ,just reverse throttle channel and everything should be ok Regards Ken Jack

Trumpy!
Does anybody know how to cancel a bid on e-Bay? I put in a bid for a “Cowboy Outfit” and it seems I’m only six minutes away from owning the Australian Labor Government ! |
