    Oh no, you built *_A DRONE_* !!! I've never had much luck getting iron-on film to stick well to plywood -- what are you going to cover it with?

    What the? Did I see that you have the steerable nosewheel connected to your aileron channel or do you fly some kind of weird mode on your radio?

    • @timtheplaneman
      @timtheplaneman  Рік тому

      The radio channel mapping doesn't need to map to the servo outputs on an FC, so in I have AETR but out I have GRRAAFFTL, it's just like inputs/mixes/outputs on EdgeTX.- ArduPilot Magic! 🙂

      @@timtheplaneman Maybe not magic... but definitely some form of sorcery! 😲 Why would you have the turn control on your right stick though. Rudder/yaw/turn is usually on the left stick. Confusing?

      Oh you really are paying attention@@xjet . This one is because of my RSI, same reason I use a mouse with my left hand. I fly "mode 3" - roll/pitch on the left stick, yaw/throttle on the right stick, because otherwise I get shooting pains up my right arm. It's not confusing if that's the only way you do it!

    How do you attach the flaps/ailerons? I can’t figure it out with the hinges, could you make a short on it?

      I'll see what I can do. I remember the flaps being tricky.

    Hi hope everything works very well and the price is the lowest I have seen so far. I really hope you do a video on installing electrical system, Also does it come with a manual. Thank you I look forward to your replay.

      It works great. See my other videos of this plane flying. There's no manual in the kit, so watch my videos 🙂 there are videos about installing the electrical system in my playlist.

    The lady has no clothes on! Cliff & I will be discussing pusher props this coming Sunday at 4pm gmt. Tune in.
    Lawn looks better than cliffs by the way. Shame about the background noise. But that’s videoing for you.

    Can this be applied in the battle field .

    • @timtheplaneman
      @timtheplaneman  Рік тому +2

      The plane for sure. ArduPilot doesn't allow military applications so you'd need to find another flight controller.
