- How are brakes set up on a high performance rc glider like a DLG or F5J glider? Put it on the throttle stick!

Thomas, i have learned so much from you and the concise and simple way you explain these very complex RC/DLG concepts. Have been wanting a quality/competition grade DLG for awhile. I finally decided to pull the trigger and bought a Kite because of your videos(Black Friday sale).. Thanks for your help.
Thank you for the kind words Kip, I’m glad our videos are helping make the journey easier! Hope the model gets to you quickly, enjoy!!
Thomas, your videos are so useful to understand the basics of "advanced configuration" for gliders. It would be an amazing value if you were able to spend few minutes of video on the physics of your settings. In this specific video you use glider to show it but it would be even better with an animation showing the effect visually. Feel free to spend a minute more to explain it as it has great value for us to adopt the technique and use it properly.
Glad they are helpful, and thank you for the feedback!
Nice explanation and video!
Thank you :)
Hello kan jou make a demonstraties for active the motor brake type 1207 armsoar , thee say via BL heli ?
👍
I inherited a DLG, no receiver no batts. Has three micro servos that I can't identify. I got a
Spektrum SPMAR410 AR410 4-Channel RC Sport Receiver, and now need a compatible battery.. you have a great video on batteries, but being in Canada.. not sure where to order from? Do I connect directly to the receiver? So I need to make sure the battery has the right connector?
Send us an email (info@armsoar.com), might be able to help you out depending on where you are in Canada. Yes, they plug directly into the receiver. I like using JR/Dupont/servo plugs. If the battery is JST or others, you will need to either change the plug or use an adapter.
Hi, thanks a lot for your videos, they are of great help. I am considering buying the X20: do hou have any test of X20 range in 2.4 GHz only (before telemetry is lost and before a signal alert)? I am also planning to buy TD receivers: are you aware of possible interference between the two frequencies or other issues? Thanks a lot
I have only used the TD receiver in testing and not in my planes (I don't fly anything that really needs it), so all I can say is in my limited experience with TD I haven't seen any interference.
@@ArmSoar Hi, I found a serious a problem with the Tandem receiver TD R10 (2.4 Ghz+900 Mhz): the servos start to jitter / chatter strongly when I install the receiver in the fuselage (analog servos, Hitech and Emax). The issue disappears when I turn off the telemetry or wrap the 900 Mhz antenna with aluminum foil, so the issue should be the 900 Mhz telemetry. Unfortunately it is not possible to turn it off separately from the 2.4 Ghz telemetry! Does anyone know if the normal 2.4Ghz receivers have the same jitter issue?
👌🤘👍
Power to the minority. I’m a bottom to top flaps stick operator too. It’s because i have my throttle on the same stick (alternates operation of throttle/flaps via a switch). To me it just makes sense as I see it as advancing the throttle to get a response, same as with the flaps. Whereas to drop the throttle is a natural reaction to reduce a response .ie throttle power. So alternating from power gliders to pure gliders, I like to keep it simple “bottom to top” for both throttle and flaps.
Same for me but you do get a better grip on the transmitter if your thumb goes underneath the gimble stick to hold onto the transmitter during a spin. Your thumb stretches more toward the center of the transmitter. I never had an issue with dropping my transmitter and wouldn't change because of it but it does give a better hold if the stick is up and your thumb goes underneath the stick.
Are you using the throttle stick for brakes?
Yes, always use the "throttle" stick for brakes. For F5J, when launching this stick controls the motor and flaps control is disabled. In all other modes, motor is forced off and the stick controls the flaps. The magic/power of flight mode programming.
As a relative newcomer to DLG, I use a two position, intermittent switch to initiate landing flaps. The reason is because the programming of the throttle stick isn't something I understand yet, and attempts so far have failed! I use about 70 degree flaps, and pulse the switch to slow the glider down as it comes in. Since I'm not a contest flyer, my needs aren't as specific. I'm sure I'm giving up a lot in return for simplicity, and eventually I hope to figure it all out.
All that said, videos that address the more sophisticated needs of contest flying provide a great 'future target' for sport flyers like myself, and Thomas's presentations are concise and easy to follow.
Can i buy a glidier
For sure!
What radio where you using?
sorry, 'brakes' is not a basic knowledge to fly and not crash.
