Great Job with the Powdergun, think I will put it indas ist so cool. gut gemacht.
Meins ist flugbereit, muss nur die Preise festlegen. war eine kleine Hassliebe während des Baus, aber ziemlich glücklich mit dem Ergebnis.

Ich habe alle Streifen mit Tonpapier neu gemacht. Ich mochte das glänzende Vinyl nicht und es klebte nicht gut. einen Trick @Rasterize verwendet, der mit Elmers-Gummikleber empfohlen wird. Ich wünschte, ich hätte das vor Jahren gewusst. hat das sooooo einfach gemacht und das Beste daran war, dass man es nicht wirklich vermasseln konnte.

Weird. Mine does not have any issues - losing your receiver is suspicious though - maybe it is whatever BEC you kept with signal line. Maybe try switching which ESC is powering your receiver.well, it did better for a bit. the first flight lasted almost 3 1/2 mins before it started acting up. started to sputter and you could hear the motors cutting out. thankfully this thing thinks it is a glider and can coast in from surprising distances.
the 2nd flight did not go so well though. it launched perfect and flew up into the air for about 10 secs before it completely cut out and i had to do an emergency turn back to the field. this time i lost everything, no controls or motors and it came in pretty steep and hit nose first. the damage isn't to bad but frankly i am ready to just trash the plane. kinda bummed, really wanted this to be a great plane but i am convinced that the motor/prop/esc/battery combo just is not enough.
i am going to put it aside for now and will decide its fate later.
kinda bummed,

Another thought - try powering it up and do some half throttle static runs for 4-5 minutes to see if you can narrow it down without a subsequent crash.well, it did better for a bit. the first flight lasted almost 3 1/2 mins before it started acting up. started to sputter and you could hear the motors cutting out. thankfully this thing thinks it is a glider and can coast in from surprising distances.

What battery are you running? 4S that should be fine, but on 6S I certainly fried my 2207/2300kv motors.
If you enjoy scratch building, paperless DTFB makes for some light builds.I've had a box of 25sheets of DTFB in the garage for almost the whole year, at least since spring, with the intentions of building a new FT-A10. That foam board started peeling apart from the humidity, so the build fell to the way side. Well with the FT sale going on I decided to spend the money on the waterproof foam speed build kit. So hopefully by the end of the year I might have it built up

If you look back in this thread there are videos of my flights, including at Edgewater, and all were on 6S (made 6S by putting 2x3S packs in Series). I had attempted some ground taxis with 4S but it was nowhere near enough thrust.
