    Just received mine yesterday. Really impressed with the layout and design, But I deffinatly think there needs to be some kind of Evolution version. There is no real protection for your expensive go pro, it's just sat there on the nose. An enclosure would of been much better, and provide protection. And also a slightly longer fuselage to add bigger or more batteries. Apart from that it's a great looking wing.

    Did you fit the spar, dont remember seeing it go in? I am very mixed on this wing, when it was first announced on Lee`s channel i was all for getting one, and yes it is a very well designed wing, but having seen a couple of maiden video`s it looks to still have a bit of bob and wobble like the 900, so now im not sure, i have a 900 and the rambler 1000, albabird 1100 and dragon 1200, really look forward to your maiden, i would say good luck but a pilot like you dont need luck

    Great video, I was wondering about servo travel, the manual says you should hava a max throw of 12mm but mounting the servo meccanically centered I got around double the throw till touching the servo hold borders. How did you setup the throw? And inside inav? Thanks a lot

    • @AndrewNewton
      @AndrewNewton  3 года назад +1

      Pushrods in the outer holes for servo arm and control horn. 50/50 elevon mix gives close to the right throws. I suspect you're looking at 100% rather than 50% weights

    Try E6000/E7000/E8000 with build-in needle tip. They work great for EPP and EPO foam. They are less viscous version of Goop. Much easier and cleaner to use. Gets into tighter seams and gaps for stronger bonds. Also less bulk.

      @@k1ortia The problem with Super Glue (CA) is that they are brittle and does not fill gaps. These E glues are very flexible and have more body to fill gaps, very tough stuff. Much cleaner to use without leaving that 'frosted' appearance; in fact, you can easily remove the glue in many cases, sort of like those 3M Command tapes. Sticks to almost anything, lot of uses. Very inexpensive. You can get them at Banggood or Amazon.

    Thoughts on prop size/pitch to run this on 3s? I've got quite a few 3s 5200s that balance pretty much in the same spot as 4S 3300. 3s seems to work pretty well. Get about 20% to 25% more flight cruising around between 5 to 6.5 amps.

Maybe its possible to share a servo ground or maybe positive pin? I do worry about interference by doing this. Thanks for all your videos

    The servo horns I have on my servos don't allow for the screw, the holes are MUCH too small. Any tips on where I can find ones that fit? Also the nuts for the control bar (or the linkage between the control horn and servos, whatever it's called) close off, kinda like endcaps. Doesn't allow for a tight fit due to the length of the screw. Am I doing something wrong here?

    • @AndrewNewton
      @AndrewNewton  3 года назад

      Pushrod is the term you are looking for. Just have to drill out the servo arm holes to the right size, or heat up a pushrod and melt the hole. Buy some nylock nuts to replace the closed ones.

    • @opnekryan
      @opnekryan 3 года назад

      I would think adding a brake on wing would actually be a good way to break a prop. If you simply allow the prop to spin free on idle, it should settle into the slipstream on landing (thats my theory at least) and naturally get out of the way. Hope that helps!

      3 wire SBUS cable is all that's required (white red black), but you can also connect SPort (yellow) to send all the telemetry to your radio. INAV on a Flight Control Board - If you chose UART2 as Serial in the Ports Tab then connect White to RX2, Red to 4.5V or 5V, Black to G. For SPort telemetry, enable Soft Serial in Config Tab and connect Yellow to TX2. The board provides power to the RX6R. Have a look at my RC Basics playlist
