Thrust Vectoring setup on Spektrum DX8

[@Killerplanes]

Very nice! I get to just WATCH a nicely done how-to video and learn something I need to know. And your desk is CLEAN to boot (not to mention your hands)!

+Killer Planes - Reinforced RC Planes Ahoy Steve, its great to hear from you, well actually it was a mouse click then I read the message but its kinda like hearing from you. Im glad you liked the video. I have a hand stunt double do all the scary stuff its really handy. Thanks Steve, and keep up the awesome videos at Killer Planes we love them.

Captain Mike, simply awesome video. This is so timely as well. I'm right in the middle of trying to figure how to set up my new J-10 with canard mixes, but had no idea how to even get started. I had never used mixes before. I hope I can get it straight. I always enjoy your videos. Thanks so much!

[@MotionRC]

Flying Ant You'r welcome, canards are done the same way as thrust vectoring. If you need help just give a a shout.

Awesome instructional! Thanks Captain Mike! Please do more of these! Its hard to find good ones.

Thank you for the video. This mixing thrust vectoring was driving me crazy. I could not figure it out. Your video made it easy. Thanks again, it saved me so much frustration!

[@MotionRC]

Stuntinonem101 always glad to help. Capt Mike is the king of TV mixing!

Captin Mike, you're a legend. thank you for this video. I have an LX F14 with dodgy radio. With my Vectoring on rudder work, elevator work, but the nozzle also goes up and down when I use the ailerons. I'm in the process of replacing the radio with spektrum andI was wondering how or even if it would be possible to configure. Now I know! Thanks again. I especially like the fact you can still disable it when you need to. Legend!

Awesome video Capt Mike. This is a humongous help. You Rock brother.

[@steveblackbird]

Thank you so much for doing a step by step... looking to do this with my LX MiG-29 as the standard radio isn't trustworthy... Spektrum all the way!!

[@tcorrellii]

Just made life a whole lot easier! Thanx for the video.

[@flyingant2557]

Thanks for your help Cap'n Mike. Will give it all a shot.

[@MotionRC]

Thanks Capt. Mike I forgot and had to watch my video again to remember how I use to do it. Hahahah

[@Jose4la]

Thank you for the vide, I was able to set my Freewing F-35 thrust vectoring using a DX-9 transmitter. It is different than the DX-8 you are using.

[@visvanathansivasangran1594]

How many channel/ports u need to connect thrust vectoring servo?

[@n3cr0sc0pe]

clear and concise, thank you.

[@Evolution-75]

Fantastic video... ultra clear.... thank you.

[@edwardnymclan]

Can you show me thrust vectoring on a Hadron?

[@edwardnymclan]

Dx8

[@philmummert7087]

Huge help. Thanks

[@10inja]

Great video, thank you

[@flyingant2557]

Thanks Cap'n Mike. Well, looks like I might need your help. I tried to find the correct mix that would activate full canards (Aux 1), when the reverse thrust (aux 2) is activated. I went into my DX9, which has the same basic setup as your 8, but because the first options inside the mix were ailerons, rudder, and elevator, I had no beginning point. Should my beginning point be (Aux 2), since that's what I need it mixed with? And if so, where is it in the mixing area? I hope this made sense? Thanks for any help you can offer.

[@MotionRC]

Flying Ant Go to mixing then to P-Mi 1, click on it then scroll and click on normal. Set aux 2 then aux1. Set the servo movement percentages to the way you like them then assign it to a control switch if needed. Try that I think thats what you were asking. I hope.

[@leejimerson3354]

Hi i have a spektrum Ar8360t with the as3x gyro that my ix12 transmitter automaticlly assigns aux3(roller knob) on my transmitter as gyro gains.when i plug in the 3 servos that power the thrust vector set-up it also uses the aux3 roller knob! Is there any way that you know of to keep them from fighting each other or does the vector system need a 9channel receiver or can it be made to work with the as3x receiver?

[@Mroswaldo16]

So what about when you have gear, flaps, parachute/airbrake, pilot eject, smoke, a 12ch is meeded buty.main question, can i connect all those to switches and not knobs?

[@willdaley6571]

I need your help Capt. Mike, I'm going step by step with your videohowever I'm using spectrum DX7 there is no AUX 3how should I go forward. Thx

[@Silversan]
