I finally got safe select working in mine. Gotta say the spektrum and E-flite docs could be much much better. According to just about everything I've seen or read with the E-flite F16, when you are pulling sticks in and down and toggling switch to assign it to Safe Select, after the 5th one the elevator should waggle. It doesn't. During the process of toggling, the rudder moves like it's going from low to high rates. After the last toggle, the receiver light goes off then back on a few seconds later.
On my maiden flight I left it on safe and didn't even retract the gear. It is my first EDF after all and only 3 months after getting back into the hobby flying a supped up FT cub. 😋 the next couple flights I still wasn't sure safe was still working until I went vertical. I couldn't increase the AOA more than maybe 75°. Next time I'll
at least try a simple loop really be sure but after all...with the AS3X...this thing flies so amazingly. Already thinking about doing the bind again without safe select. In the meantime, I need to work on slow high alpha to slow down landings. The roll out after landings can be a bit much...especially without flaps to slow you down.
First landing. Sun was low but that thing rolled forever it seemed.
