Flite Test - Expos and Dual Rates - FLITE TIP

Flite Test - FLITE TIP
Dual Rates and Expos
A Hobby King sponsored segment.
Have you ever wondered what dual rates were? Or maybe someone told you to dial up your expos... In an attempt to save face, you nod in agreement while fiddling with your controller. Heck, why not just add 10% here, 50% there? Then next time maybe you'll be able to hang with the cool flyers. Don't feel bad. Just let Josh and Josh give you a little insight on dual rates and expos. After watching this action packed episode of Flite Test, you'll have the knowledge and confidence to walk onto any flying field. And this time... you're the cool one!

Wow, my childhood duo! I'm going down KZbin's memory lane

[@prestonshute7243]

Seven years old and still a very good video. Love your older shows. 73

[@bulltactv4809]

8 years ago... holy cow you guys have come so far! Thanks for helping myself and many others get into the hobby :)

[@johngallop4761]

By far the most useful FLITE TIP I've watched!! this has completely made me understand D/R and expo! I've set it up on my cub now and can't wait to fly it and see the difference!

[@aerospacematt9147]

I never fly without DR/E. If you have rates low enough, it can act like SAFE from Horizon Hobby receivers, without compromising the flight envelope and limiting the control angles.

[@ChickenTandies]

Still the best video format flitetest has ever done. Miss the dynamic duo that was Josh Bixler and Josh Scott.

[@Eavind]

Great explaination of expo an dual rates! Now I have a better understanding of it! Fantastic show, very professional, yet entertaining at the same time! Hope you keep at it!

[@user-ik7bl4yg2t]

1:39 "Very good, but you're wrong."

[@jaysonragasa7902]

Joel Walker just Josh. LOL

[@teresasalazar5227]

LOL😂

[@mindhaze]

I talk in sarcasm, and just like this you have to communicate back in sarcasm.

[@andywonline]

Wow, uploaded 2010! Not seen this one before, still the same format show back in 2010, you just look a little younger! :-) Very helpful as always, thanks guys.

[@DJDoger217]

I got a Flight Test ad while watching this

[@daskipper]

Your films are hands down the best looking RC videos I have ever seen. VERY well done.

[@richlindquist]

I have watched dozens of FliteTest videos, and after watching this one, I now know what they have been talking about. :-)

[@KevinFlynn1967]

Are you kidding me?! I read and searched for an hour and still did not understand expos. You guys are the best! Thanks for the clear demo!! Flitetest rules!

[@cactusjackthedesertrat5601]

Thank you so much for taking the time and work to make this video salute

[@paulrichardson1425]

Great video boys, well put together and easy to understand. Love that aeroplane, and looks so cool with the lights on.

[@connorc170]

Nice job Scotty on throwing the plane

[@E744763Productions]

Very cool video and full of good info. I like that expo testing stand! Congrats to Joshua on his first handlaunch and I hope to see him flying (or on a buddy box) next video!

[@tqexplosion]

lol the inspirational music when J. Scott threw the plane perfectly is awesome :D

[@Verksmester]

I learned someting new tonight, nobody has ever told me that I could be using lowrates for fast flying. Will try that next time : ) Thank you, and keep up the good work.

[@arloayaan9893]

I know it's kinda off topic but does anybody know a good website to watch newly released tv shows online ?

[@nolancoen8925]

@Arlo Ayaan Flixportal :D

[@arloayaan9893]

@Nolan Coen thanks, I signed up and it seems to work :D I appreciate it !

[@nolancoen8925]

@Arlo Ayaan glad I could help :)

[@oe.nygren]

Flying rc for 6 years, still one great video. 9 years old... wow

[@startazz]

Josh is the main man now that he can hand launch your planes ;-) plus a great way to explain DR/EXPO with that graph on the servo and TX = thumbs up boys.

[@badkarma52]

Josh got to help!!! He looked so happy. Great vid once again guys, and congrats on your HK sponsorship.

[@FliteTest]

@tim46767 This is a Swift II From MS Composit, but Hobby-king might be coming out with something similar. ;)

[@FliteTest]

@735joseph The lights can be purchased at Hobby King.

[@i0.0t]

Thanks flite test! I was completely confused with dual rates and expos until i saw this great vid. Thanks guys!

[@audiov005]

OMG!!! best launch of the wing in my life that i every witness!!!! keep it up josh!!! doing great guys

[@Migueldeservantes]

Josh, I hope you get very well compensated for your work! Very very very professionalism! thanks

[@MrPetercooknh]

lol... it's fun seeing the old videos... Josh Scott is hilarious. What about some throw back videos... new video but a revisit to the topics in areas where the technology has advanced since 2010... Then have the Bixler and Scott dynamic which could satire the original video based on how Josh S has advanced with the hobby too...

[@freemarlochip]

Great video guys as always, when mentioning EXPO you should of also mentioned that you can have both POS & NEG Expo on some radios making it more sensitive in the center and some brands use NEG expo to de-sensatize the center while other use POS EXPO. Was fun to see the funny Josh have is wish of launching.

[@iZilly]

Could you guys do a tutorial on how to install the lights and make them work with the remote? I have the Swift II and would love to get some lights on it but i am not very good with electronics if i dont have some guides

[@Qromer]

Can't wait to see Josh fly. :) Good job guys.

[@charlescurcio4855]

Great Video ! cleared things up for me big time. Tell you the truth I dont think Josh gets it. You are a great instructer.

[@TeganBurns]

The look on Josh B. when he gets to explain something technical

[@lewandlo]

Did you ever make a video an how to set up a V-tail function. There must be an easy explanation on setting up a V-tailed plane. Great stuff ..Very informative too. thanks

[@kmdo86]

Futaba 7cap Such a good radio :), too bad i just sold it and switched to 9cap lol hehe, great vids again, you guys should do a set up of your fpv setup on the twinstar, I am really interested :]

[@BlueBirdMartin]

I like the fact that HK calls you guys Josh A and Josh B :D

[@Superskunky78]

Nice explanation lads, got get myself a new radio so I can change dr and expo as my radjet and skyfun are really twitchy at speed:)

[@735joseph]

Good Job Josh & Josh, Keep the good work up. My son name Josh :)

[@yeahyoung]

I know many have already said this but Josh S. looks like Justin Timberlake!

[@PlaneButcher]

Thanks guys, i couldent see then difference what expos could do, then last part helped me alot thanks,

[@samnelson3526]

Wow, how they have changed...!

[@Savagetoastness]

lights are awesome

[@Johnbrum26]

love the videos guys keep it up. One thing i would ask is the music its really bass heavy and my whole room is shaking. Some of us do have sound systems, maybe find something with less bass

[@wippo76]

nice show all watching them thanks

[@nigelholland1811]

Ha you look so young. Sad I missed all these early videos.

[@randomnessx3597]

I like this old intro more

[@wakeoblivion]

This is all a nightmare setting up on a traxxas summit

[@RotorHead2652]

is he just well joshing lol or does he seriously not have a scooby doo about rc flying ... watever you8 guys are funny as hell

[@CaptainFishbones]

Josh, I love yah Brother, but I literally changed the playback speed to 75%, and then started it over a 2nd time. Yah talk really, really fast. 😁 Dave, Fishbones Air

[@jesterwaterwizard2917]

Great vid

[@bigmac3006]

Great vid!!

[@TangyLlama]

I think of expos as deadzones on game controllers

[@randomstuffno1caresabout3]

Nice launch keep it up

[@wallaguest1]

nice video ;) congrats

[@carlocivicsi]

how to set up the trex 550E cyclic pitch with the FBL UNIT FROM ALIGN WOULD BE NICE

[@bobmaxiao]

good job, guys. keep it up

[@akbar5083]

My maiden flight crashed because the aileron and the elevator throw is way too sensitive, I even set the end points to 100%, I'm so stupid! I don't utilize this dual rate/expo thing 🥲

[@johnnybio1]

can you guys please make a video on motors and esc and matching esc to battery and motor size cause im lost when it comes to that stuff i would really like to build my own plane but have no idea what esc goes with what battery and what motor

[@TheShelterCanton]

awesome.

[@arsitama]

Isn't Dual Rates will slow down the servo move? What is the difference between Dual Rates and End Points?

[@blairo15]

On my flysky tx and on clearview RC sim negative numbers in expo make the centre of the stick less sensitive not positive numbers? I hear everyone says positive expo does this but not in both of my cases!

[@simonbartlett8759]

Awesome Thanks FT

[@Ike92]

Thanks very good video

[@LY5AT]

Josh Bixler - Host (Experienced) Josh Scott - Host (Noob) xDD

[@Skydive4ever]

Nice work :-)

[@rollinolin333]

what plane was that and how did you set up lights to come on with a switch on the radio. tuttorials????? another awsome video!

[@billbollinger7305]

Get u a relay switch plug into recover. Now some radios u can plug straight into receiver setup on switch to turn on, like radio master t16s

[@tim46767]

Is this plane a maxi swift? Do have HobbyKing a similar plane, I can't find it there. Thank you for sharing your experience

[@BlueBirdMartin]

Good stuff, this "show" is defenately a big step from the original HobbyKing reviews. I hope Josh Scott gets less dumb over time, and i want to see him do a high alpha :) Although i like hobbyking, i think having them as sponsors might limit what we are gonna see in the future, are you going to stick with the reviews of equipment or are you also going to build some RC planes from scratch?

[@z1serpent]

nice job brother lol

[@wrestlemaniac202]

so when did flitetest switch to 2.4ghz?

[@randomnessx3597]

they've allways used it

[@backrowguy8955]

@@randomnessx3597 not in this video

[@zero00tolerance]

please put a link for the lights pleaseeeeeeeee

[@bigjoker4u]

helpful thanks guys

[@Neurotripsicks]

I have a Futaba, is Negative expo positive for that radio?

[@thesaltysak6644]

yea i bought a cheap transmitter and now i regret it i cant adjust my expos its super hard to fly super touchy

[@Mr.XJ.96]

What would be the best set up fot the Timber?

[@sirjaymill]

awesome

[@timdoyle8199]

You didn't say anything about positive or negative watch does what ?? (Futaba radio)

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

Jesus still the 9’ antenna only 8 years ago ?

[@Zagrebfico]

what transmiter are you guys using in this video

[@sterby1]

@yeahyoung Josh Scott is a nice guy, why do you say mean things about him?

[@giomaverick8546]

Its 2018 and that antenna is loooonnggg

[@CBGG44]

4:50 eeeeewwwww an aztec

[@ericedwards974]

What is the music starting at 6:11

[@735joseph]

Hi, Where can i buy them lights? Thanks

[@x1ver]

Does 30/30 equal 30 percent expo

[@DestructoXxShaunxX]

Guys please help because when i fly with expo because im new to it it confuses me because im used to normal non-expoed settings.

[@x1ver]

Can my dual rates and expos be so messed up it causes me to crash?

[@miniwarrior7]

would they use a Relay for switching on the LEDs?

[@harpoon_bakery162]

they used a designated channel. they have a badass transmitter from Futaba that allowed them some extra channels for fiddling around with led lights.

[@tomstanton28]

ARF!

[@MSargeNZ]

The Soft Focus and weird depth of field going on in these videos messes with my eyes.

[@pbutok]

Can u change them with a dx5e

[@rg26100]

Can someone put this on TV????

[@pietzeekoe]

How does the percentage rating work on expo?I get that if dual rate is 50% it move only 50% of your input but how does that work on expo?

[@billbollinger7305]

Slows it down servo movement, lower the slower. Higher the faster!

[@tomtom4867]

4:05 is wrong.......if the number is -100% then it will be veeeery touchy

[@numex106]

just a bit of exponential software

[@Betts456]

Great bit of education, and Great to see dumb Josh get to throw. Ok i have to say this, I think that maybe dumb Josh needs to tone down the "Dumb" hes playing... please tell me hes know a bit more about the hobby than he leads on. I think that if he does know more about it, then he needs to show it, and he can do his comic relief in other ways. Just a thought.. I believe in you to Josh!!
