I just ordered the Night Radian. When using the balance lead for the lights, I guess I won't be able to use my lipo buzzer? So I have to use Spektrum batteries? That's a bummer.

Genius idea! Is it quite simple to set up the Rode to record sound with your camcorder? I’ve got a Sony HDR-FX1E. Will it work with that also?

In the old day the throttle trim was mechanical and you could just go to full up trim to the bottom. Do you know of a way to make the electronic throttle trim move more quickly. Someone said you could make the trim essentially a three position switch. Do you know how or where to look? Thanks

Thanks but for some reason when I transfer the SRM file into my AR636A rx (done exactly the same way as you have demonstrated) it does not import the SMB settings as the flight mode switch makes no deference, nor does the panic button. I have reviewed the settings on the Safe Model Building tool and the settings are definitely there but when I import that file over to the Spectrum Program and load the new file into the rx I only get the settings that I set from the Spektrum Programme and not from the SMB tool. Help would be very appreciated.

Excellent video! I know this is an older post/video, but I think you may be able to help seeing it's related to telemetry and the NX8 transmitter. I'm having a problem using my NX8 transmitter with an Apprentice STS 1.5 and the Spektrum Remote ID. I'm trying to get the Spektrum Remote ID to show the data on the NX8. The Remote ID light is on, I went to telemetry on the NX8 and put in gps, scrowled to the gps screen, but there's no data showing up. What am I missing here? I would appreciate any help and suggestions!

Great video. Your video has helped a beginner a lot!!!

Help please For some reason my ailerons (on a Y lead and selected as such on the Spectrum Programmer) works fine when I move the aileron stick but does not move at all for AS3X or SAFE functions/when I role the plane side to side. The elevator and rudder both work fine and move as they should. My gains and priority are set exactly like yours. The aileron servos even do the dance when the rx is turned on indicating that they are initialising. I cannot understand why the ailerons are not working as they should. Help would be very much apprecited.

How you mix flaps with elevator? Thanks

Thanks but don't you have to click on the 'select' button on the new file that you imported for the receiver to save it? How do you know that it has saved it?

Can you not configure safe and AS3X using just the Spektrum Programmer? Not understanding why Spektrum didn't incorporate both the programmer and builder as one.

Do I need a cable to unlock my receiver before doing all of this? Or does it come “enabled” out of the box?

Thank you for the valuable information. I have a Spektrum IX14 transmitter, but the concepts are the same. I'd like to learn, for example about all the telemetry concepts, as for example: in FlightLog Frame loss, Holds, , Pitch, rolls, I have pics of screen in Flight Log A: 1180 B: L: R: dBm: -42, F: 1144 2:03; H:1 26:45. This is information in a Fox Glider FMS 3000. Gyroscope Screen Gyro: Roll: 0, Pitch: 0, Yaw .; Max 97. 109, 146/ In other words, a Smart ESC, Motor, Receiver, give us a lot of information. How to read and interpret that information. What is the use for it?

Any experience with using a 11.7v battery?

thanks mate

Thank you . 🇬🇧

Good video, using your method I cant adjust the drag rudder push rods short enough when the drag rudder doors are clamped shut. Do I need a shorter push rod?

Wtf. Now it just hit me, dont u do metaldetecting video on youtube also????😊

Question: I’m using NX10 and if I activate the “TIMER 2” using “STOPWATCH” and “One Time set to Active” I get an annoying beep every minute even though everything is “INH” in “Timer Event Alerts”. I want the timer to start at 0-throttle and show the total time.

thanks :)

Do you have a video of nx10 for f16 fa

Can the NX read out percentage of rpm or throttle rather than just rpm?

Merci pour tes tlp j'ai bien tu et pros

Genius!

I got the V900 last week and yet to maiden it - the weather here in the UK isn’t great at the moment with high winds and rain. Just wanted to write on here that I too had some of the same problems that you mentioned: 1) The rear bolt on the main wing protrudes out into the inside of the fuselage and can poke the LiPo out of position. It’s already a VERY tight fit inside. To fix this, I didn’t glue the main wing like you did in case it needs replacing in the future. Instead, I put a few small washers on the screw before putting it through the wing and bolting it on. 2) The placement of the Spektrum 4S 2200mah 30C G2 certainly does not fit flat down (label facing up). The Velcro buckle stops this from being a good fit and bulges the fuselage out so the canopy doesn’t sit flush. Ideally placing the battery on the side is better BUT yes you do have to shave the canopy a bit. I did this with an exacto knife and now it sits flush. 3) the motor brake comes OFF as stock. HH-E-Flite will say the ESC is not programmable but they are certainly wrong. You can find the instructions online and do it yourself although it’s not as straight forward as the programming with the Avian ESCs. You have to follow all the series of beeps and tones using your throttle stick to navigate through the options. 4) the instructions manual mentions to set throttle cut at -130%. When doing this it causes an issues with immediate motor action with throttle cut OFF. HH/E-Flite says this is normal but it’s certainly not unless you want your motor and ESC burning out once you’ve landed. I set it to -100% for throttle cut so even with throttle cut ON (and 0% throttle) the motor doesn’t start spinning unless the throttle is increased just as the way it should be. 5) I reinforced the main wing at the leading edge black insulation tape.

Thanks for your videos and instruction. Just a comment from a "literal" guy...vocabulary is critical to understanding. For example, when you say "when we move the aileron "control", is that the aileron stick, receiver port or aileron surfaces? I'm just beginning to study mixing. One video i watched clarified that the left item is the "stick" or switch you're moving. If I hadn't seen that i wouldn't know you're talking about the stick. please this is NOT a criticism - just saying that many helpful youtube content providers presume all of us know more than we actually do (meaning me). So they inadvertently leave out little key points because it's second nature to them. Anyway, thank you again for taking the time to educate us.

Thanks looking 2 purchase this plane. Servo extension clips hadn't come across b4 I like! I will use! 1st plane was a arrows prodigy 2nd max thrust aggressor, which I love both. But I am after a plane that I can actually learn to take off n land.. I've missed that in my learning journey....time to learn a different sort of flying/aspect to the hobby.

...😜👌

Just a note... 1 Ail 1 Flap doesn't necessarily mean 1 servo for each. The image shows 1 servo each, but it really means you are assigning 1 channel for each. E.g. If I have 2 servos for the Ailerons and 2 servos for the Flap... and a Y harness on each of the Ail and Flap then I would choose 1 Ail 1 Flap because they are being controlled by 1 Channel each.

We miss you Dave :)

I had few Ar636A rx's left and there was no way to repurpose these without the safe Model Builder.Huge thanks for these awesome series my friend.Spektrum Programmer only takes you so far. Adding the Safe Model builder I can do exactly the same as Forward Programming with the 7 series rx's. For example Switch B I setup 0 Gyro Off 1 AS3x 2 As3x and Safe. Sweet !!!

Just what I was looking 👀 for!! Thanks man.

At 11:35 you show a Rudder setup. But all the numbers are different and you didn’t say anything about what they meant. What is going on with the Rudder settings?

On the Monitor screen, they don't move.

De nuevo utilice la informacion de este video, muchas gracxias por compartir. Saludos desde La Paz BCS Mexico.

Is there a way to modify the SAFE Gains with this software? My elevator pitch gain is too small, I am afraid the plane wont take off the ground with that pitch gain

When I have SAFE enable on flight mode 1, the SAFE gain for pith is too low. my elevator barely moves up when I do up elevator, I do not think the plane will take off. is there a way to change the SAFE gains? in my transmitter (radio) when using forward programming (on a different receiver) there is an option for modifying the SAFE gains, forward programming does not work for the AR636A, and I do not see that option of adjusting the SAFE gains in the SAFE model builder, any ideas?

Hello Dave, after binding all my control surfaces are backwards, where do I reverse them? on the receiver or on the radio?

Hello Dave. Great videos. After binding my radio all surfaces are reverse. Where do I reverse? on the radio or on the receiver?

I did not get the calibration window, what is that mean?

This was a tremendously helpful video! Thank you. I've just subscribed.

Hi Tnx for informative video … just a question abt NX8 … how can we add our customized model images to the radio? Using the SD card I suppose.

When I go to plug in the cable nothing happens, I cant click power cable or connect or anything. The cable also starts to get really hot when i connect it to the rx and computer, any ideas why thats happening?

What a great instruction video! Learned how to set up my receivers or change my BNF receivers.

Can I leave the AR636 inside my aircraft and fully connected, all servos plugged into the receiver while using the model builder and the programming cable plugged into the bind port on the receiver and performing the program functions including importing the corrected model to receiver?

Can you use forward programming to do all that?

Head banger😂

When I plug in my cable to update my receiver, nothing happens, I cant click connect, or power cable, any ideas why thats happening?

Great review

Where on Horizon Hobby can you find the srm files? thank you

Hi, I wonder if you can help please? How can you set up Throttle Cut, Failsafe and slow running of the ic engine in such a way that throttle cut stops the engine, failsafe sets it to idle and slow running to as it says, slow running. I can’t seem to separate throttle cut and fail safe. I am using iX20 with AR637t. Many thanks. David
