How is the reverse set up? I looked at the specs for the avian speed controller, it says no reverse...what the deal, Yo?🤔🤔🤔 I really want that feature for my float planes!!!!😍😍😍🤘🏻
@HorizonHobbyProducts4 жыл бұрын
@@sacrificialrubber779 The reversing functionality is uniquely programmed in the Avian 60A ESCs installed in the Ultimate 3D and Night Timber X. However, it will be possible to update other Avian ESCs to having reversing in the future!

Hi Jason. Nice flyng! 2 questions please... 1. Is there an Ultimate 3D 950mm for RealFlight 9? 2. I missed out on getting a Night VisoinAire - will there be something similar anytime soon or what do you recommend as an alternative?
@HorizonHobbyProducts4 жыл бұрын
Hello Joe! We don't currently offer an "official" Ultimate 3D 950mm model for RealFlight, but if there are enough requests we can possibly add it in the future! In the meantime maybe someone else will make one and offer it for download via the swap pages: www.knifeedge.com/forums/index.php?resources/ Also, the Night VisionAire is now discontinued (most spare parts will still be available for a few years), but you may be able to find one in stock at a hobby shop or online retailer since they just sold out in our warehouse recently. And although it's not exactly the same style, we view the Night Timber X 1.2m as its replacement: www.horizonhobby.com/SearchDisplay?searchTerm=efl_Night+timber&categoryId=&sourceDomain=&storeId=10151&catalogId=10051&langId=-1&pageSize=40&beginIndex=0&sType=SimpleSearch&resultCatEntryType=2&searchTermScope=2&showResultsPage=true&searchSource=Q&sourceDomain=&pageView=

For precision aerobatic/"pattern" style flying, the Extra 300 is a bit better suited. The Ultimate can also do that well, but is a bit better for 3D flying than the Extra 300.

But how do you have time to see all that telemetry while flying?
@HorizonHobbyProducts2 жыл бұрын
If you have a Spektrum DX Gen 2/3, NX or iX series transmitter you can set up voice alerts to call out the telemetry data at certain time intervals (e.g every 30 seconds), when certain values are reached (e.g. low battery voltage, high ESC temp, etc.), and in other instances. Or, in most cases, just a quick glance at the screen will allow you to see the information you're most interested in (and some screens show the data in different ways so it's quicker/easier to see when flying).

What is the difference between this and the Pitts?
@HorizonHobbyProducts4 жыл бұрын
Similar to the full-scale Pitts versus Ultimate, the shorter tail moment of the Pitts makes it possible to perform more aggressive snaps and spins. The longer tail moment of the Ultimate works a bit better for precision aerobatics and hovering (though it does also snap and spin well...just not quite as fast/aggressively as the Pitts can).

Can you reverse the motor on an eflite havoc
@HorizonHobbyProducts4 жыл бұрын
Not with the stock ESC, but down the road you will be able to install a Spektrum Avian Smart ESC (www.horizonhobby.com/SearchDisplay?searchTerm=SPMX_ESC_AIR&categoryId=&sourceDomain=&storeId=10151&catalogId=10051&langId=-1&pageSize=40&beginIndex=0&sType=SimpleSearch&resultCatEntryType=2&searchTermScope=2&showResultsPage=true&searchSource=Q&sourceDomain=&pageView= ) to reverse the motor/fan. We have already been testing motor/fan reversing on EDF models like the Havoc with very good results so far when utilizing it to slow the airplane down after landing (which makes the roll out much shorter...almost like brakes!)
@madyet52354 жыл бұрын
what is the flight time like on this ?
@HorizonHobbyProducts4 жыл бұрын
It will depend on the weight/performance of your packs and throttle management of course, but with the Spektrum 4S 2200mAh 30C Smart batteries (www.horizonhobby.com/2200mah-4s-148v-smart-lipo-30c--ic3-spmx22004s30 ), 6+ minutes would probably be likely for most. Jason still had almost 30% capacity left when using that battery after about 5 minutes of mixed flying, including some 3D and motor reversing in flight (which pulls quite a bit of current at full throttle), during the flight in this video.
