You did an excellent job with your hand illustration. Waiting on my Bigfoot. Joining AMA sometime this week...just need to sit down and do it. Joining local Golden Triangle RC Club...I am excited...your videos help thanks
I set up DR/Expo on my UMX Turbo Timber according to the manual. I was extremely dissatisfied with the way plane flew. When I got home I Inhibited the DR/Expo and the next time I flew that plane it flew like the wonderful plane I'd heard about and watched several on UA-cam fly. I won't be so bold as to say I'll never use it again because I can see where it might help on some planes.
Thanks for the bind vid and this, I keep hearing these terms and had no idea l was completely lost. Flew it once with RTF controller so twitch 😁, ega to setup expo and throw along win flaparons when l bind 1220 ranger to DX6e. P.S crashed wing tip stall low altatude messed up landing gear she'll fly again. Bad pilot... bad😅
the purpose is to assit with those turns. however i rarely use mixes because i would rather FEEL the turn through the sticks by using elevator, rudder, and ailerons to keep the plane level in the turn. it takes practice but keep at it. i will try to get a video out on how to do flat turns.
I ordered the umx mig 15 bnf, which will be my 3rd plane. The transmitter i have is a basic dxe. I cant go into it to set my own rates and expo. My question is, when i bind the plane to my transmitter how will the rates be set from factory? By the way, you explain the rates and expo great. Thank you very much.
No they will have no rates or expo set, However with SAFE on that little jet you will be fine. The factory settings will keep yoo loving her. Just keep her close, she is small and hard to see to far away. also the nose gear is a bit fragile so you may want to just belly land her.
@@FatGuyFliesRC yeah, i will be flying over grass so I will belly land it. Watching videos it looks easier to belly land. Would it fly easier if i did have a programmable transmitter? How fast do you think it can go? It will come in next week. Ready to fly it.
@Fat Guy Flies RC I'm brand new to hobbie 1220 ranger RTF first plane want bind to spectrum DX6e no good do I need a spectrum 6 channel receiver thinking AR620?
Thanks for watching! I set the travel in the transmitter to 100% now what that equates to in mm or inches I have no idea. But its the full movement of the control surface with 30% expo mixed in to tame it.
You did an excellent job explaining thoes terms.but I do have a question. Can all control surfaces rates be put on one switch, or do I need flaps on one, elevator on another and rudder on a Third? Provided they would all be the same high and low dates.
Absolutely! In fact that is what I do. I use my G channel which is a 3 position switch and assign high, mid and low to each position, I normally run high rates as 100% over 30% expo then mid rates as 80% over 30%expo then 70% over 30% expo for low rates. and that's on all control surfaces.
Just watching this video in 2024, Thank you for the great tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
Greg, good job explaining all this. People need to know don’t over complicate things.
Thank you and yes we need to keep it simple!
Un gran LIKE 👍 saludos cordiales amigo.
Thanks for watching!!
I really like these kinds of videos , that’s so much for sharing..... I fly most of the time time at 100%, and 30 to 35% expo...Works great for me
Thanks for sharing!
' Vert Helpful Info. Thanks Big Guy 🛩
Glad to help.
Thanks for this explanation, it was very clear. My first plane is coming soon, so this is timely. :)
Glad it was helpful! Please post a vid of your new plane!!

Joining a club and the AMA is always a good idea. Enjoy the bigfoot! Glad my videos help, thats the reason for them.
Very good explanation!
Glad you think so!
Great explanation in a beginner and this helped me understand
Glad it helped! I try to but things in a begainers perspective. I have to be careful to explain common flight terms that newer people may get lost on.
Thanks for the proper explanation
Happy to help, Also i subded lets see some of your flying!!
Thank you sir, I do understand it now.
Glad to help!

That plane does not need it. My UMX Timber I flew straight out of the box. Just bound and went.
Very useful thank you
glad to help.

Glad it helped! But for your crash DO NOT GIVE UP!! Crashes are part of it, fix her up and go again!!!
@@FatGuyFliesRC she's all fixed, I actually enjoyed it got comftable and familiar with planes workings😁
What is the purpose of mixing ailerons and elevator? I'm still having trouble making smooth, tighter turns. Thanks for help.

Not necessarily a flat turn, just a normal turn with one down wing but not losing altitude and nose dive. Thanks for your reply.

A ar620 will work since you need a 5th channel for the REFLEX system to plug into.
What kind of elevator throw do you have on your Air Tractor? I just built one and it has almost zero throw either way.

Thank you, Now understand it
That's why I have the channel to inform and entertain.
👍😉
Thanks for watching!
If you had a plane to show what you said, it would a lot easier to understand. Thanks
I agree I wish I had done that in this video.
