CHUNKY C's RC ADVENTURES
США
Добавлен 12 апр 2020
I have been doing Radio Control hobbies for 35+ years and 20+ of those have been flying RC airplanes. If its one thing a career in aviation has taught me, nobody knows everything. So hopefully I can spread some knowledge while learning some new tricks along the way. So, come with me as we explore the awesome hobby of RC Aviation. Oh, by the way! I'm not fat, my friends say I'm just CHUNKY!!!!

For me, on iOS, it hasn't been any better. The iOS will show up when scanning, but about 85% of the time nothing happens when I tap it to connect. Sometimes it allows me to tap, and appears that it's going to pair, but then times out. Additionally, when scanning, the Goosky iOS will show up twice (the same BT device listed twice) in the scan list. Typically, I have to close out the app, re-open it, and try to connect again. Wash, rinse and repeat until it finally connects.
Try not going into phone settings to connect. Just connect from the app. Works on my iPhone I used
@@ChunkyC_RC I don't go to BT settings to connect. All connections are done via the GooskyApp.
Thanks!
exactly what i needed - Nice one
Hey, Just a quick question. Would this setup also work with 2x T-FHSS receivers set up the same way through Sbus? Or does it have to be the FASSTEST receivers? Thanks
It'll work fine. S-bus language is the same for all Futaba receivers. Just bind it to your transmitter like normal T-FHSS binding procedure and set up the receivers for an S-Bus port. Plug them in and OPs test and range check. Thanx for the question
I got a suggestion move the control rod down a hole or two and turn up your travel all the way
That might help, but the gears are so cheap and soft, they strip way too easily. Especially on the foamy rudders.
Chris looks way to complicated for me, looking forward to seeing it fly. Jeff in LA USA Ian's RC, Ian has built several Align kit choppers.
Use studioX with the pc connector it is so muh easier less fiddly
Thanks for the great tip! Plz keep them coming.
Wait hang on a sec. You have 2 batteries plugged in this receiver yes? That receiver is designed to handle 4.8 V. By plugging 2 batteries you double the voltage for that receiver. Wont you damage the receiver by doing that? Just asking. Great video otherwise.
Nope. If you study up on series vs. parallel circuits you will see that's a parallel circuit and the voltage remains at the battery voltage. It's not doubled. Now, if I ran the batteries in series, then the voltage would double. Good question 👍
@@ChunkyC_RC Very interesting. Because when you plug say one in the receiver you should have 4.8 volts across the whole receiver, plug 2 in you double the voltage. Still confusing but interesting. Thanks brother.
Do you think li-on batteries are safe for a RC receiver. Cuz there 1.5 V not 1.2 V do you think it might damage something inside the receiver? Just asking. Good Vid by the way.
As long as the max voltage of a fully charged pack doesn't exceed the max voltage of the receiver your good. Energy is all the same no matter what type of cell it comes from.
I am still flying my 450 Align and happy with it , Is it worth the up grade ? I have the Ikon and the up grade I never notice any difference
Ahh right, maybe it's on stidioX, I found a pdf before because I printed it out, but that was a few years ago now 😒
Now that you mention it. I think I do recall seeing some PDFs of way older versions on Align T-Rex website. Nothing that's relevant for today's version
Great video Chunky, and I agree with you regarding the beastx, I've just bought the TB40 TOP Combo!! So once again will have to troll the endless pages of crap on the BeastX wiki sight, sadly I've done it all before and it never gets any easier!! However I do enjoy the way the BeastX flies, I've been looking on the Wiki sight and I can't find the latest version of the manual 5.9.9 were you able to get a pdf for the manual and the quick start card ?
I haven't found anything new for 5.9.9. The only difference I saw was the change log at the beginning that told you what they fixed in the latest version. I've never found a PDF version of NONE of the manual versions.
At 11:00 you simply had to swipe up the "Paired devices" list (The fact you paired it make it jump from "List of bluetooth" to "Paired devices", but it's not obvious that the screen is splitted in 2 windows with a scrollbar for each.
I'll check it out. Thanks for the info 🙏👍
I use two schottky diodes back to back so i can safely use two batts, a batt and a BEC, ESC and UBEC, any combination i want. An SBL 3040PT is a great schottky choice, 2 diodes in one package already connected right. I also use a 4700uf 16v capacitor across the buss
So it would probably be good to leave you BEC connected with extra battery back up what do you think ?
Can you explain in a bit more detail? Do you mean a straight battery backup and a BEC? For example, a lipo connected through an ESC.
@@ChunkyC_RC Yea I have been told that it could damage you receiver, but I think your right I am thinking if voltage is the same it should not matter or even just below max voltage I think it should be OK what you opinion ?
@@superdon1chw just make sure the battery voltage is within the limits of the receiver and servos and you should be fine, with or without BEC.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for your video! Quick question mate, I bind receiver Flysky FS-iA10B (R1) which came with Flysky transmitter and works fine. I would like to bind another Flysky FS-iA10B receiver (R2) to same Flysky transmitter. Only one receiver will be operating at any given time. I would like to perform testing debugging without having to disconnecting/removing receiver (R1) mounted on Arduino ROBOT. Cheers mate!
Just bind R1 as usual. Turn off R1 and then bind R2 as usual. Both receivers should receive same signal and operate simultaneously.
@ Brilliant! Appreciate your help mate! NEW SUB 🙏🏻
My s1 is junk. BT won’t save settings and HeliDirect tech has not been able to help me!’ Had it 3 weeks and can’t return it!
Wow! Sorry to hear that.
Today I learned how to twist wires and that “bump my gums” is a saying to talk. Love it.
Glad to educate folks on the finer learnings of southern talk 😂. Thanx for watching 👍
Electric For Sure! Im fixing to Pick Up Yellow too Since I Have Two Red Balsa Planes Lol!
Awesome gotta love the N word 😂💯
Would you recommend tightening down all screws w/loctite before the maiden flight?
I would give it a good pre-maiden inspection looking for loose hardware and security of ball links etc.. Since I'm just hovering around, I didn't go through and Loctite screws. The screws on this thing are tiny. If you fly hard, then I would probably secure them. I did Loctite all the screws when I built the Align TB40. Thanx for the question.
Just ordered my first ever RC heli, the S1 from Heli Direct. Thanks for a good video, you earned a sub.
Your gonna love it!!! In the stabilization mode, it's a pussy cat. Good luck, keep us posted....
Hey buddy I have the same receivers plus 2 another futaba receivers using the T16IZ. I've been doing a range check but losing signal from most of them around 50-60 meters and red light starts stuttering. Anybody have an answer? All are binded fine. Thanks 👍
How do you have your antenna oriented? It's strange that all the receivers drop. Are the receivers in an aircraft. Maybe do a check with just receiver in the open (not installed in aircraft).
Hey bud thanks for the reply. 90° as stated in manual. I had a friend stand at my front house door with Tx then I walked up my street to this distance then red light starts stuttering, FAR too short for this equipment so I'm hoping the houses are interfering so I will apply the same aspect at my local open flying field to see if that makes a difference. Fingers crossed. Weird one 😕 any knowledge would be appreciated off anyone. Thanks👍
Wait a minute!! In your original post you said you did a range check at "50-60 METERS". That's WAY TOO FAR. That's 170 to 195 feet away, too far away for range check. When you put the transmitter in range check mode, it drops the signal strength to a fraction of its original power. You only need to walk away 30 paces, approximately 90 feet. It sounds like your simply walking too far.
@@ChunkyC_RC Hi. I did not set the Tx or Rx to range check I simply had it set up as if I was about to fly and walked away and the disruption happens. I will actually try the range check also but can't see that making a difference. Thanks
If all the receivers fail range check, I would have the transmitter checked.
Thankyou, thats helped me out nicely.
Díky . Tohle Goosky nezvládnul . Mám stejný problém.
Cool little trick. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and share it.
Thank you 😮
Just bought one of these i have a query? You said in the video that you only need the soft switch do you not put independent switches on the batteries as normal for charging and turning on or off the batteries before turning on/off the system. Thank you. Atb from the UK 🇬🇧
No need for more switches. Just plug the batteries directly into the unit and the single switch will handle it all. You can remove the batteries and charge on the work bench or charge in place if you have long enough charging leads. You can install more switches if that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy....but it's not necessary. Thanx for the question 👍
Thank you very much, you helped me a lot. Greetings from Mexico
Glad it helped!
Muchas gracias me ayudaste mucho saludos desde mexico
Sloppy bearings
Thank you for the upload. Now I know why my SBUS to Gyro was not working right. I was using channel 8 on Mode A as the output to the gyro SBUS in. Now I know to change the Receiver Mode to B as the SBUS out to the Gyro in. How I missed this, I'm a dummy.
Awesome!!! Glad it helped you out. Thanks for watching!!!
Mine has Nylock nuts that rest in a plastic holder that receive the landing gear screws. I lost a screw and the nut rotate just enough that the screw wouldn't engage. There is no way to access that nut. Horizon Hobby told me the fix was to replace the fuselage. I drilled two holes in the battery tray to straighten the nut and then applied a drop or two of epoxy to stop it from happening again. I also replaced the provided screws with button head socket screws to eliminate the problem of screwdriver drifting off. They also look better.
Great info, thanx for sharing 👍
Esto no es redundancia, esto es repartir la mitad de los canales en uno y la otra mitad en el otro!
COOL 🇺🇲✌🏼
So true but you almost made me through up
the vomit is crazy 😭
Great dark Flight guys.
Thanx for watching!!!
That’s really cool Chris, must be fun flying the plane with lights like that. 👍🏻
Give it a try Chris. I promise you will love it. Thanx for commenting.
TB great flying, Chris fun video the LIT Tundra looks great. Jeff in LA USA
Get you one Jeff. Hopefully you can get better a better video than what I've been able to get.
Excellent video 👏. Your explanation is perfectly clear and easy to understand. Thank you for posting this!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for commenting.
Blade 230s is too cool!
Fantastic walkthrough!
Thanx for watching
Looks as smooth as silk Chunky 😀👍
I just put my 4 star 64 together it was really nice with really nice hardware that yellow looks good cool planes
I was just looking at mine the other day. I really need to start it. What motor, prop and esc combo did you go with?
@@ChunkyC_RC I have a great running os65AX I have a homemade engine running stand that run and tune engines on works great then after I had it idling and running good I mounted it to the plane I have a 12x6 on it I used to have a 4 star 60 in 90s with that size prop plane was amazing I’m getting my old 4 star 40 ready for Saturday morning to practice on and to get back into the groove of the 4 stars
Awesome, thanks man!
And you call your self RADIO MASTER 😂😂😂
My friends just call me Radio ,😂
Interesting. The description on Helidirect (for the S2 pulse) left me scratching my head, it lists 2 batteries and a matt for a significant increase (+$64 when not on sale) even today at %15 off, it's still a $32 difference from the standard BNF S2; just not worth it IMO at that price difference. But if your getting the two batteries on top of the originally packaged and a 2nd canopy...I can jump on board. The matt is a meh addition.
Yeah, I was less than impressed with the mat but it may come in handy for some things. Glad to help, thanx for the comment.
