please keep these awsome instructional videos coming, very nicely done.
Some fantastic tips there, Lee! Thanks a lot! 😃
I believe I have some Matek 5v regulators... I'm going to build something like that!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
im trying to swap from Spektrum to Frsky, the terminology is not very intuitive. Thanks for the vids. very helpful.,
WoW that is a Beautiful radio, I just was talking to a friend in Discord about that Same radio, I just wish I could get flying more fix-wing right now it's a 40 mile trip one way. But I love that radio and I want it now ! LOL ! Can't wait to see more onit. Thanks again for the video and information.
I would consider that radio if it could run Edge TX
As always a well explained process.
i love that plane.
🤩🤩🤩🤩🍻🍻loved it
I know you're just showing examples of how you'd change servo throws/end points/rates but it's always best to reduce the servo arm length and keep the throws in the radio at 100% or higher. This increases mechanical torque and resolution.
good idea to use servo tester for centering. just a small contribution, I heard that using curves for limiting and centering the servos in outputs menu is more precise
Indeed, this is a simple plane setup video that only covers the basics needed for a simple setup. Happy flying!
Great video as always, very helpful. Could perhaps show how to set up a motorized glider with the rudder and elevator on one the right stick. Only way I've been able to do it is through the rudder aileron mix. Is there a better way, one in which the left stick is not rudder active? I see you can change the transmitter mode but I have a mix of planes including full house gliders where I want the rudder on the left stick also. Thanks
You could simply plug the rudder servo into the channel on the reciever normally used for the ailerons. Would that not work?
love for you to do a comparison on the Frsky range 18/18s 20/20s etc Im struggling to decide which would be the best of there range to purchase.
Thanks for the idea. I only have the X18s here so that isn't something I can do at the moment... Happy flying
Great overview! As someone who has been flying acro quads for years but has never flown a fixed wing, how much of a learning curve would I be looking at to learn the controls for a fixed wing?
ua-cam.com/video/xIJ3qZ4KOOQ/v-deo.html is a good place to start... Happy flying
Hi There your videos have been such great help over the years, I have just purchased an X10S Express second hand in great condition is there a way to reset it to factory default and get rid of all the models that are in it? Best Adriano
I'm not aware of one. If you find out a way, please let me know.
Great video. Is the antenna internal on that radio?
They are option for external antenna too.
love your videos can you send me a link on where to buy the servo power supply
Not sure what you mean. The servo checker or the 5v BEC that powers it?
Ignore my patreon message!
I figured it all out last night. I'm going to work my way through the rest of this series today. Those 6 momentary buttons are screaming Ardupilot modes haha.
I just replied so let me know if you get stuck! :D
I’ve been using high grade Futaba for many years. Looking at FrSky. Differences? What is Open programming. Complicated? I am not very computer literate. Too difficult for me?
Check out the ETHOS series that covers the basics. FrSky has targeted Futaba and Spektrum fixed wing flyers with these ETHOS radios.. best of luck
Can you do a video on headtracking?
I could. Specifically with ETHOS?
Why not center servos manually instead of recentering with the radio values?
This video is aimed at beginners, topics like that are covered in more advanded content... Happy flying
How can you add multiple rates on a switch? (low, mid, high)

Hi lee, ETHOS has come a long way since your first videos, version 1.4.5 at the moment. Maybe an update video on what’s been changed in the last few updates. And I’d like to see what I need to use it for ELRS which should be possible now.
