ft delta

I am looking to build a new RC airplane, preferably a Flite Test Swappable plane. I have built both the 4 channel Mighty Mini Tiny Trainer, and the FT Nutball. I feel very comfortable flying both of them, and I’d like to progress to another Swappable plane since I’m limited on electronics. I...

Hello Everybody! I just build the FT Delta design and was working on putting the electronics in it. I plugged everything in and turned it on. The ESC did not beep and the motor did not turn on but the receiver was getting power through the ESC and was connecting to the Transmitter. All my...

Hey all, I've been into RC for a bit now, but have just recently started building my own aircraft. I decided to try out the FT Delta before getting into regular wings, and it came together very nicely... However, the only way I can get it to balance out correctly is if the battery is mounted at...

Hi All, This is my first post here; I'm very, very new to RC and following an airboat that I've built, after finding Flitetest on YouTube, I decided to build the Delta. The build went ok thanks to all the videos and advice on here and I'm happy with it and the powerpod. My problem is...

Maidened my FT Delta today. It flew fairly well with 60% throws and expo @ 30. I cut the flight short though after noticing that it took almost full throttle to maintain altitude and could only get meager rate of climb at full throttle. Is this to be expected ? I'm considering an upgrade to an...

Hi, first post here. I just built an FT Delta and the maiden flight went very bad. As soon as it would leave the ground it would roll really fast. I thought maybe it was a torque roll issue so I'd cut the throttle and try to glide it back down, but it was impossible to control and would just...

Hey guys, since I destroyed my FT Flyer the other day I decided to bite the bullet and have another go with my Delta, and while I didn't think the conditions were too windy (15km/h gusting to 25, or 9-15mph) I found it quite difficult at times to keep a stable attitude during a turn and found...

Hey guys, this is my first post here so if this is in the wrong section feel free to move it. I've recently built the FT Delta as my first plane to learn on and being new to RC planes I ended up making it a bit heavy by covering the surfaces with packing tape to waterproof it and add strength...

Hello, I did my first flight with my FT Delta today. I got it trimmed and flying fine, then it would go wacko and do a spinning spiral of death into the ground! I did it twice, and I have no idea what caused it. It seemed like I still had control (not a radio lockout) but I couldn't recover...

I just built my FT Delta. I am using a DX6i. I mixed the Ailerons with the elevons. I can get them to move up and down in unison, but only one aileron at a time will move when I try to turn. I can reverse the servos and then they move in opposite directions just fine when I turn and only one...
