Thanks so much for the video... Makes it very clear... A bit annoyed by the comments of people who want the exact configuration of their specific Tx... Mmmmm guys it's a hobby... You have to work (and learn...) a little bit ya know... Not everything comes pre-done, pre-chewed, pre-digested out of the box... Mine is on the way and should be in the mailbox by Tuesday... I have a Spektrum DX6i (not E.. 🙄) and I'm pretty sure I'm screwed when it comes to having a Elevon program... Gonna have to resuscitate the old Futaba FF9 and pull my hair with the programming... On the other hand i fly kite surf wings, and a lot of gliders and i think it's gonna help me with launching and flying this model... All the other vids of the V2 I've watched I feel like most owners try to fly it like a plane... It's not... It's a wing !!! You fly this with a pinch of this and a pinch of that... You use the down wind up wind a lot... Bunch of cave men 😅... Anyways thanks again for taking the time and energy to make this vid

LOL I am going to have to get one of these! BTW I was searching for a FlySky surface radio and Traxxas trx4m parts... just goes to show how easily I get side tracked. LOL

Hi John thanks for the info iv brought one but im struggling to trim it at the moment im hand fly to make sure the kite goes out well but its going to the left to much and then I a just it it goes to much to the right I followed your instructs on the video but still can get it. Can you do like a mini video of the trimming please would be a great help. I only have a turnigy rc 6 channel remote. Thank you
@JohnVHRC24 күн бұрын
Hi, what does it do that needs trimming? Goes left or right? Move the knot on the brake string closer to the wing a little bit at a time until you can get it to go straight. If your radio doesnt have trims

Hi John, I have a AR7010. I’m not sure which servo I should plug into which channel?
@manicfourАй бұрын
Okay doing your servo setup and travel setting. I can achieve your action to accomplish. However my brake as pulling down the arms go up. I've tried reversing. Swapping leads around while still the same results. Far as the left and right throws shown in the video are spot on. I'm using a IX14. I will still currently be trying to figure this out. If I do I will do a reply here if I succeeded or not.

I just got mine to work with the dx6e when you first setup model use elevon B then plug in the right servo to the aileron channel 2 and plug in the left servo to elevator channel 3 throttle on channel 1 then go to servo setup and go to reverse aileron channel and reverse elevator channel now in servo setup go to travel and choose RAL make the top number 0 the bottom number 100 then choose LAL make the top number 100 and the bottom number 0. No mixing required I know it works on my Spektrum dx6e I hope it works for you my Friend. Shanon Rc OutLaw KZbin channel.

Hi John, Greetings from New Zealand. Great to see your model set up for the V2 Paramotor. I still have and fly V1 model. I followed your Spektrum radio set up for it and its worked perfectly well for me. Was wanting to ask how you find the V2 wing copes in more turbulent or stronger wind situations? I found with the V1 wing would sometimes collapse or deflate when there was turbulence or stronger wind. I found I could recover from it if I pulled on the brake lines and the wing would reinflate. I bought a replacement wing for my one from a company in China called RC Castle . It works very well and is less prone to collapse. Are you located in Oregon USA? Why I ask is in some of your videos I see what looks like Mt Hood in the background. Ive visited Oregon twice and its so beautiful, much like New Zealand. Phillip Keelan

Would you be kind enough to share a link to that wing you bought? I may need it that is always some type of wind here about 5 mph even at the time I could try it out without being sleepy giving effort for such. Wind here normally 3 to 6 mph right a sun rise and same at sun down or stronger.

Hello John I received my paramotor V2, but for some reason, the ESC wires going to the brushless motor were all undone from factory now I don’t know how to plug them back in Please help. Don’t know what to do. The last thing is I don’t want to burn nothing up by not plugging wires back the right way. Thanks Brian
@JohnVHRCАй бұрын
Hi Brian, those are easy, and its not possible to harm anything, just hook them up, if the motor is going the wrong way, you just have to reverse two wires. Make sure the prop is on correctly.

@darkofc29 күн бұрын
@@richlinus3257 Hi there ! I was just giving John thumbs up for a good job. But since we are here - in turns - only respective arm (and respective brake line - one - thicker) should go down for that turn - e.g. - for right turn - only right arm goes down - for left turn - only left arm goes down .. (for braking - both goes down - equally ..) Perhaps - if someone could help you to spread the wing - you could turn paramotor upside down - so you hold the cart - and wing freely hangs down .. You should be able to see/spot - if your right brake line is entangled with something - or right servo/arm not working as intended .. P.S. Beside that - there is "RC Groups" forum - there are threads (multiple) for both older and this newer version (google "RCG HK Paramotor" and search a bit ..) There are a plenty of pictures and vids - and someone should be able to help you more .. Happy flying !
