    Almost all high wing planes require at least 10 to 12 percent down elevator to flaps in a half flap configuration and 20 to 22 percent down elevator for full flaps. i learned this from Ryan Ramsey years ago

    It appears to be a fantastic scale plane in every way. FMS planes can be a bit low on power but are usually powerful enough to be scale. My FMS Pitts V2 has just enough power to feel scale (I'd like a bit more though). the FMS Corsair 1400mm I had did not feel powerful enough but, thanks to a mishap, its electronics live on in a VQ J3 Cub where they provide perfect power!

    Nice general aviation plane. Looks great.
    Thank you for going through the Reflex gyro setup with ELRS.
    So If I understand well, there is no side effect to have ELRS Arm channel set to -100% ? ( as long as you don’t have dynamic power maybe ?)

      Everything is explained indeed. Chan5 is less hassle than I thought after viewing this video.

    CH5 should stay always at +100 while flying.... to make sure the elrs receiver is working properly.
    with Reflex v2 or V3, they require the CH5 for the modes, so is better not to use subs with it (with elrs)

      Arming doesn't actually change anything on the Rx. It only changes behaviors discussed in that video on the Tx.

    Choose between FMS ranger 1.8 and this for a trainer? They both look great and fly really well.

      Hello, that could be a very long answer. We'll try to keep it as short as possible. This is my opinion based on my experience, both airplanes fly great, They are both well Manard, Relaxing to fly with no Surprises, with no bad tendencies at all in the air, Both have great ground handling. the 182 Takes the edge on scale, looks, disassemblability for transportation and storage. The ranger Is a considerably bigger airplane, has a Little bit of an edge on the flight Characteristics, especially landing. Both airplanes are sweethearts, Easy to fly, easy to land. can't go wrong with neither one, and like I said, this is just my opinion. I hope this helps.

      It looked ok to the naked eye, but you'd probably want to try a camera to do a proper assessment.

      Possibly: If the esc can take it, if you prop down, if you can get it to balance, and if the current draw isn't more than the motor can handle--maybe.

      I don't know of any way to improve it's 'scale' power. Feels on the mark to me. I personally prefer higher power:weight ratios, but that doesn't mean this plane doesn't do well for what it is. If this were one of my regular flyers, I'd leave it alone and enjoy it as-is.
