Hello Vernon. We have completed assembly of anaconda. Having major issues with the ruddervator. Control surfaces intermittently not functioning. Appears to be an issue with the stereo plug in the boom. We fixed the plug in place so we think it is inserting properly. But for some reason the connection is spotty at best. Have you had similar issues or do you have any suggestions?
I did. I cut one side of mine that had the most problems and soldered it direct. My left side is now fixed into the wing forever. :( ruclips.net/video/NIXCkVSRTFg/видео.html
Thx. Don’t think soldering is an option for us bc need to be able to disassemble plane for transport. Do you know what the issue was with the stereo plug? Was it the wire or the connector? Any idea what was failing in there?
Ok I watched the video and see what your issue was and your fix. We didn’t have that wire running by the connector that blocked your boom from full insertion. So we are at a loss as to why connection not working. Since it’s hidden inside wing difficult to inspect. Trying to avoid cutting it open but may come to that.
After I cut mine open I remembered that if I put the boom in at a small angle it slid up over the coax. If I had it to do over I would cut both stereo jacks off and have one continuous wire from the FC to the tail assembly. Also hard to do if the wire from the FC to the front stereo jack is glued under the cover.
Happy traveling Vernon, you're all over the place! 👍💪✌
Thanks
