    Good day everyone.
    For people using EdgeTX radio like TX16S or Zorro.
    Here the set up:
    Protocol : Mode=Multi / Type=DSM / Subtype=X 2F
    Inputs: channel 1-4=AETR / Channel 5= Safe-AS3X / Channel 6=Flaperon
    - Follow flaperon Advance setup in the manual to activate it on ur TX, it works well.
    Hope it helps some of you.
    Have fun and more flight powerrrr.
    Thanks a lot sir Brian for this great video.

    I'm just starting to appreciate planes like the Consciendo and the MOA, etc. This UMX version might be the push i need to dive in.
    I steered a fella who'd been out of rc flying for a decade or so, to BPRC on UA-cam, today. He saw me flying my brand new, magnificent, glorious FMS Maule. When I landed, he was all up in my plane, amazed by the SAFE tech (put an ar630 w/avian 45) and telemetry, etc. And it was dead calm, so I had her 3ft off the field, landing flaps, at jogging pace, rock solid.
    Hopefully, he's mashing your links right now! 👍

      I think it's very cool to have them, but I haven't NEEDED them. THAT BEING SAID, I haven't had the opportunity to slope soar with this little bundle of joy just quite yet - if I were sloping, I'd want to be able to use the flapperons / spoilerons to help open up the flight envelope.

Got a boat load of 2s batteries in different sizes and would love to get this thing for a stress free cruiser / glider to fly when the wind is 90 degrees to the stinking runway. If you’re not sure, just say you’re not sure. Thanks buddy. Oh. Almost forgot. Remind the Camera crew / Wifey that she’s doing a fantastic job. Your videos wouldn’t exist as is without her.

      It's supposed to, but ours DIDN'T ;( They're working out the "BUG" in the software, but we don't want to mislead. We THOUGHT it was going to work too, but we were bummed to see that the 2S doesn't work *YET* - This is supposedly an EARLY production run issue, which has been caught, and they're trying to get it fixed. Most will fly on 3S, is what they're saying, and to be fair, they're right...3S is AMAZING!

    I know that the NX Spektrum radios are better but if I have a DXS transmitter from the Aeroscout, will the DXS work with this plane. I’ve read that it will and some say that it won’t. I’m thinking it will work with SAFE enabled but that you can’t use the flapperons. It’s either SAFE or flaperons, is this correct? Thanks for your awesome videos, you’ve made me so excited about this hobby.

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  8 місяців тому +1

      Short answer - No, Don't even try. If you want a BNF plane, get an NX7e (or better) and use it. bprc.me/Tx
      Long answer, "Maybe"... Spektrum put together this video ( ua-cam.com/video/g7iOkc8-jd0/v-deo.htmlsi=P1AEWBTlPu-2-LhE ) showing how this kinda works. Please keep in mind, when you watch this video, it only shows what happens AFTER you've gone through the work of setting up the BNF Profiles, which also doesn't add elevator compensation, which basically makes flaps useless, if you ask me. This feature will allow for running some planes that have retracts and/or reverse thrust, or if they run on 7 channels or less, but buttons will not be configurable like we do on our DX/NX Transmitters, and it will be a tedious and frustrating experience.
      If you were on a desert island, and needed to fly home in your RC plane, OR if you're in New Zealand or Australia, and costs are anywhere form double to triple what we pay here in the USA, then you MIGHT consider this approach, but otherwise...if you know you're gonna get hooked, stop wasting time and effort, and get the NX7e (or better). I promise, if you waste the time to do this with your DXS, you will sooner than later (like maybe 2-3 weeks) be buying an NX of some sort. It will be a waste of your time, and might even make you throw the DXS at a nearest brick wall, or possibly even an innocent bystander - don't do it ;)
      Now, if you were running a training site, where you needed 25 of these transmitter, THEN, I'd seriously consider getting 25 of them...this might make sense, since the cost would be crazy for 25 NX7e's, but to be frank, I'd rather have 25X a programmable Tx, so you can have the BEST flight experience, and TEACH how to use the features. If you get the DXS working, you will be using whatever they setup for switches, directions, and very little to no flexibility. This will cause a lot of confusion and difficulty in an already difficult time for new pilots.
      Hope this helps. Good luck, and if you need help setting up the DXS, just watch that video, and buy the several necessary cables to get hooked up to you PC to update firmware, and install the profiles, and a few long and frustrating hours later, you'll be where you would have been in 2 minutes with virtually any programmable Tx that we've ever shared on our channel (less the el-cheapo jumper T8SG - which is terrible).

      @BrianPhillipsRC  8 місяців тому +1

      Oh yeah, thanks for the question. I KNOW exactly why you're asking. I asked this type of question when I first got into the hobby, and within a few short months, I had bought a DX18, which was the at or near the top of the line card at the time, less a couple weird "QQ" models, which offered things I didn't need. If you THINK you're gonna get hooked, don't even get the NX7e, just go for the NX10 - you will almost immediately forget the pain of the high price, and start loving the experience.
      P.S. This is not a sales pitch, it's an investment into YOU as a new pilot. Your experience, and difficulty therein will play a huge roll in the difference between your success and failure. If it's too hard, you might give up, and we've seen it WAY too many times. We want you to find success and ENJOY it too ;)

      Spoilerons will help you change the airfoil of the wing, to a degree. Some use them to speed up the glide of a sailplane, but I use it to bleed off LIFT when I'm ready to land. You don't really "NEED" it for most flying applications on UMX planes, but I want it ;)

    Another question, I read that when the light is blue on the model the mode is SAFE, while with red light the mode is AS3X.
    The thing I noticed is that when the model is in SAFE mode, the control surfaces move quickly and noticeably, while in AS3X mode you can hear the noise but they don't seem to move (unless you they move very little) is this normal in your experience? Thanks for your answer.

    I dont know what I did wrong in the setup but the plane wants to just climb everytime i throttle up.. to fly straight I have to literally hold the nose stick all the way up so as to fly nose down.. in any other plane this would cause the plane to go straight down to the ground, but with this conscendo it goes straight. The minute I release the stick it starts climbing again

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  4 місяці тому

      Sounds like you're in SAFE, and somehow you got "LEVEL" set as going up hill.
      Step 1) See if you're in SAFE. If you ARE, get OUT of SAFE.
      Step 2) Does the plane fly "normal"
      YES - You have a SAFE setup wrong...not sure how to fix on a BNF with MicroRX Brick - Call Horizon Tech Support
      NO - Try TRIMMING it in AS3X, and I bet she'll fly good. Then try switching back into SAFE...does it work now? If not, then same thing, contact Horizon Hobby.
      The reason I'm saying "contact Horizon Hobby" is that you don't actually setup SAFE on this plane...it's setup WHEN you get it, only have to turn it ON. If it were a PNP and you were setting it up from scratch, you would have to set the LEVEL in First Time SAFE setup...which you shouldn't have had to do...
      Lastly, if you haven't already fixed your issue, CHECK THE RX BRICK FOR LEVEL in the fuse - is it glued or broken out of level? This can cause the plane to THINK it's flying level, when it's going up hill... if it is, fix it, and retest.
      Good luck!

      ​@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks Brian for the detailed guide. I really appreciate it. However, I am not aware of how to check the rx brick for level. I don't even know what that means :) google search took me to Lego bricks and masonry related sites for some reason. I'm not savvy with the hardware stuff, so I just followed your video and bound it. The plane is all glued in shut and has a plastic covering the electronics under the wing so not sure if that can be taken off or not to get to the fuse.
      I was in SAFE, but the problem is not just in safe. It happens even when I am off it. I tried trimming it to the max setting and that helped some, but not a lot. It still wants to go upward anytime I throttle up to even 40% and I leave the elevator sticks on its own. Is contacting Horizon Tech Support the only way forward or is there something I can do still?

    Great videos - informative & entertaining. I have bought several models based solely on watching your reviews - unfortunately not via your links as I live in Europe. My only critique (I’ve made to you before) is that the radio setup portion of your videos is near impossible to follow. You’re all over the board and scroll through your various menus and setup steps way too fast. You make long videos so time isn’t the problem. If you wish to improve AND if you’re true mission is to support NEW COMERS, then SLOW DOWN and be more sequential during your radio setup portion. Otherwise - keep them coming - love watching you!

      I think I know what you meant, but there's not really CROW on this plane, since it only has aileron. With only ailerons, you CAN do flapperons and spoilerons. If you want CROW, you'd need ailerons acting as spoileorns, AND inboard flaps to make CROW, since they would be working in opposition to one another, in a CROW configuration.
      Hope this helps! Not trying to argue semantics, just not sure if you're aware of this.

      I have experienced this "Blind Spot" on many planes too, but it's not like it's STUCK there! You just have to move the plane into a different attitude to resume your line of sight. I've flown them in fireworks displays, and that's where you'll REALLY lose them ;) We also cut out some of the decals to expose the OUTBOARD WINGTIPS BOTTOMS to help with visibility. You could also add some more to help too...don't want to lose a plane.
      I think Horizon Hobby need to work hard to get better with regard to some recent decisions, so YES. Fortunately, it's gotten SO bad lately, that they have had to start listening, and they ARE!!! Be on the lookout for some positive changes in the weeks and months to come. I agree there's some issues, and don't want to beat them too hard over the head, since we do work with them, and want for their success, both as partners, and as customer, but also as RC addicts, but some of the "powers that be" DO understand, and they are fighting hard to help fix some of these issues. They're getting traction, but it'll take years to undo some of the worst decisions, while others can be fixed at the drop of a hat, and they're working both fronts. We DO give them a LOT of feedback like this, if you weren't already aware. WE CARE, and most of the time, at least, they do too...but it's a hard market out there! Don't forget - there's a million easier ways to make a buck!!! We need to protect some of these American RC giants! If we don't they'll just stop and let China take their small hold-out in the market!!!

      @@BrianPhillipsRC I normally don’t complain too much to HH but the Night Radian is a joke. I flew it 2 times in daylight to trim it out perfectly. The night I decided to try out the “Night” portion of the plane I noticed the stock led settings were severely confusing in the air so I landed and changed the pattern to something better. Everything was good until I banked the plane in a left turn and only about 50’ high. The plane disappeared from sight! The support tech said he had experienced it also. So basically I’ve got a brand new worthless plane now and I don’t believe it’s my fault. The plane is advertised as being a night flyer and it isn’t necessarily so. Years ago I had one of the first Radians that came out, I decided to put my own navigation lights on it. Flew it for years with no blind spots and loved it. I’ve owned just about every plane E-Flite has made over the years, I’m just very disappointed in the service now.

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  Рік тому

      I don't think the FAA recognizes the sub 250 gram airplane as anything, let alone a DRONE. This is why we love it so much ;) They're very purposely ambiguous, as they want to be able to throw the book at you depending on who's arguing against you in court. If I had unlimited financial resources, I'd fall on my sward, and be the "test case" then bring a suit against the FAA, but we aren't in that position, and probably never will be, so for now we'll just do our best to "keep our nose clean" and not get in trouble.
      The new FAA rules are so ridiculous (and kinda always have been too). I can't help but likening their over-reach to a breach of our understood, Separation of Church and State. Right now in the US, the Federal Government of the US and their bureaucrats are demanding that we celebrate and worship THEM. We not only need to follow an impossible list of made up rules, which are many times borderline or outright unconstitutional, but also we must obey ever possible interpretation of the rule, no matter how egregious it may be. This sure sounds like a religion to me! We really need some super rich, popular, and beloved actor, comedian, or celebrity to lobby for us, which is also ludicrous in it's own right, but it's true. We're just becoming subjects here in the USA. We're losing freedoms in every conceivable direction (now UP too), and like many other bloated bureaucracies, the FAA needs to be reigned in, and they need to stop thinking they're in a Kingdom, with unlimited, unchecked power...but they will only back off if they're defunded, and slapped down, which congress is not willing to do, since they're getting cries from Karen's of the world over drones that were "filming them while showering" or some such nonsense. Can't we just classify a PLANE as something other than a drone?!?!!? How hard would that be. We have 10,000,000 classifications in aviation, but in RC, we can only have one...the most vague of them all????
      Anyway, I'm rambling here, and wish I had the willpower to fight this fight more publicly, but we can't right now - way too much on the line to pick a fight with the Feds, since we're currently fighting one of the largest companies on planet EARTH, Google. I need to keep my "un-winnable" fights to no more than 1 or 2 at a time ;) LOL
