How to Modify the UMX Conscendo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лип 2024
- Welcome back to Inverted Aviators RC! In today's video, we turn the normal UMX Conscendo into the custom IA Conscendo! We add a yaw string to help tell the wind direction in the air, full deflection in all of the control surfaces, as well as a custom fixed glide mode! Stay tuned for more cool customizations and modifications to your favorite RC planes!

You made a great video!
I really like how yoou put the Tx in the picture while flying.
I just bought this UMX, just need to set it up and go fly.
I do not like safe and as3x, I am not a Spktrum guy at all as I fly open TX using all ELRS tech.
Thank you so much for this video, it was great!
Thank you very much! Yeah I think it’s fun to see the sticks while I’m doing some wild aerobatics. Do you change the reciever that comes in the UMX conscendo, or are you using ELRS with the stock reciever?
I love that yaw string. It seemed to be working even in that super strong wind!
Yeah it works pretty well despite being just a tiny piece of string
Thank you for mentioning me in your video I am honored😊 string might be a little stiff
Yes of course! You're constantly the first viewer and commenter, and we really appreciate the support :)
Love your mod ideas and explanation, especially the radio set up. I will probably try making a few changes on my glider. 👍🏻🙂
Yeah absolutely! These changes were pretty easy, and they make the UMX Conscendo a lot more fun!
@@InvertedAviatorsRCI tried to follow your video about programming the up elevator mix on my NX8, but it isn’t showing up on my monitor. Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong?
Oh bummer! I'm not brushed up on the NX8, but I'm more than happy to help you trouble shoot! I think posting in our discord would be the easiest way to figure it out!
@@InvertedAviatorsRC I think I’ve got it figured out, but weather has not cooperated to test.
Huh what was the fix?
It is not uncommon to have to change control settings on a glider depending on wind and thermal lift. If you are having to add constant input, change your settings as needed. Unlike a regular plane, gliders require changes in your settings. If you slope soar, you will also need to change things.
Yeah having a "glide mode" switch is super handy, and when I went flying the other day it was so nice to just flip it on and float around!
how do you power that little fpv camera? it is only good for 5.5V, and you plugged in a 3S battery, correct?
nevermind..i found your other video..just got the little fpv camera ordered!!
Glad you got it figured out! Let us know if you have any questions and happy flying!
Alright what is the purpose of the string??
Hey! The yaw string on a glider shows the pilot if the flight is coordinated. When the string points straight back, the glider is flying efficiently in the wind. If it deflects to the side, it means the glider is slipping or skidding, and the pilot needs to adjust the rudder to get back to balanced flight. It's a simple, reliable tool for better performance and safety. We wanted to add it onto the umx conscendo to help glide for longer!
Guess who was first
Hmmmmm this is a tough one 😉
