Hi David, I have enjoyed your videos on this aircraft and value your information. I will start my assembly soon with all Spectrum & E flite power 180 motors. I notice your comment on Lighterside of rc.If you can give me any advice with props and other things you have learn I would appreciate it.I have seen some comments about landing gear motor defects wondering if you had any problems with yours.Thankyou for time!
@davidsnyder238Ай бұрын
Hi! If your using the recommended power setup with the Avion escs it's a good setup. I built mine when the great planes motors were still available but the motors your using should be the equivalent. My recommendation of the 22x10 prop by xoar is definitely one thing you will want. I used hitec servos and in the elevator I used a D951tw digital. As I mentioned in the other post it needs to be a very hi torque servo. My setup used a powersafe receiver as I fly Spektrum, 20400T I believe is what's in mine. As for the landing gear motors they can be a little temperamental. I would recommend using a jp controller over the one that's supplied. It doesn't hurt to get an extra motor or two for back up although I've only had one fail in 3 years. I actually have one now thats a little intermittent that needs replaced. I ran 12s and I put the escs in the main fuse and ran long wires to the motors. That may seem counterintuitive but it makes more practical sense and the escs can handle it. Reach out if you need anything else 😊
@edwinmclean2591Ай бұрын
@@davidsnyder238 Thank you for your help! What is the part# Jp controller? I bought the SPMAR20410TS receiver and the SPMXAE1120HV ESC.I was going to use the A6320 servo for elevator. The motor wire from H&H will be $60.00 did you buy theirs or from another place like Lowes they have 25 feet for 17.00 dollars? What is your opinion of the light set Lightersiderc is using? Iam old and just started flying 3 years ago. Iam not a very good pilot but I love to fly, I wanted a big plane hoping this one will be okay for me.
@davidsnyder238Ай бұрын
@@edwinmclean2591 I would highly recommend using a higher end servo other than the Spektrum for the elevator. The torque specs even though they are recommended really aren't enough. I used 10 gauge wire That I had bought from Amazon, your going to need at least 24' and it would be good if you had a little extra. You will also need I believe 3.5mm make and female bullet connectors, roughly 12 male and 12 female if I remember correctly since you will want to be able to disconnect the booms from the wings wich mean you need to be able to disconnect the motor wires. I created extensions from the motors into the booms then ran the wires from the esc's in the fuse through the main wing and then they could be connected and disconnected to the booms for transport. As for the part number for the JP controller you will have to buy that from JP or another distributor as Horizon does not sell them. The light set that lighterside is using is top of the line. Im sure there are alternatives although I have not looked into them. I dont have lights in mine so I havent researched them.
