I am attaching the cowl with the pod holder into the main fuselage, how far down the does cowling go onto the E former? Should bottom lip of the pod holder be flush with the E former or do I push it down as far as it will go when gluing it?

Hi! I’m from Las Vegas and I’m 15. Recently, I just got into quads and planes. However, being a teen, it’s hard to be able to keep these things in the air as I’m always wrecking parts and such. Recently, I just wrecked my fpv quad through a faulty micro receiver. It lost connection, which...

Hello, a few months ago I bought the FT Dart as my first flite test plane. I built all the foam and electronics for it, but have not been able to set it up with my transmitter. I have been using a Y cable since I am just starting out, and my transmitter is the TGY 9x (it was cheap and has very...

Hi, I’ve been trying to fly my ft sparrow and new ft mini mustang yesterday and today but I’m having trouble with the connection. I’m using the same receiver for each plane, I’m just swapping it between the two. The receiver is the 8ch one that comes with my Turnigy 9x. With the sparrow I would...

I'm just looking for friendly talk/help to help me get through this winter here in Northern Michigan. It does not permit many good flying opportunities... I had a chance to fly my Storch 1 time (the day before the snow came, and has not stopped snowing for more then a week), but crashed it many...

Hey everybody, Finally gotten a chance to get back to flying, been a busy spring and summer. I built the FT Cub and had some issues with the ESC. So I changed it out to an eMAX BLHeli 30A LiPo 2s - 4s ESC. The issues I had with my ESC went away when I changed it...or at least for a while...

So I received my new Wizard X220s yesterday, and got the first sets of flights in today. Crashed a few times with no issues besides some mud that was cleaned off while batteries recharged. Unfortunately, after a very minor crash from a 2 foot hover, none of the motors spin now. Everything...

I went through the "which transmitter should you buy" thread and didn't find an answer to my current question and that is: Do you need to use a specific receiver/transmitter combo? Or can I buy a Graupner receiver and use it with a Spektrum transmitter? Specifically, I'm considering starting...

Hello! A little while ago I bought the darkmax 220, and recently I wanted to go from FlySky to FrSky. I got the receiver yesterday (XM+). Binding the receiver when without any real pain, I had to look up some video's on YouTube. But when I plug in my receiver to my quad it does not seem to talk...

I have a UMX A-10 with an odd servo problem. When I move the rudder stick, about half of the time the servo will go in the desired direction but will stick for a bit, come back, and then will usually start jittering like crazy. I also noticed that the servo motor becomes EXTREMELY hot. Other...

Hey everyone, I'm currently trying to finish up my FT-22 (my first scratch build ever) and I've encountered problems with my Power Pack B that arrived yesterday. I have the ULTRA 2812 1200kv Motor which came with the power pack, but I have no screws to mount it to the firewall with. There were...

Hi I have been having issues with getting my lizard95 in the air. Here’s just a little background to the situation. I’m using spektrum and have followed the instructions in this video and now it arms. The only issue is that when I arm it it takes off. And I think it drifts a bit to the left as...

So thanks to the helpful people on this forum I have been able to pair my acrowhoop to my Taranis qx7. After connecting it to betaflight the transmitter works but it does not work after I disconnect from my computer. I watch the video from FuriousFPV on setting it up and there was a dump file I...

I have been flying that Gremlin for a while now (all stock EMAX parts from the FT store) It has been great! ...but, from the beginning, sometimes a motor or two won't start up when I arm. It use to be sometimes, but now it is always...I won't fly now. It isn't the esc, I slapped some hobby...

I have an E-Flite Timber and have been having a problem with the right aileron servo jittering when the stick is in a certain position. Rebinding and wire rerouting haven't helped. It only started after I replaced the other aileron servo, but I have no ideavwhy that would have any affect...
