    Thanks Dave! I just ordered a BushMule and had no idea what ESC's are in it. I've only ever used the little programmer with ESC's before. Like the comment before mine, I will be coming back to this video many times. Keep up the great videos!

    Thanks Dave. After watching this I was able to synch the motors on my bushmule. They were running at different speeds and one had brake set, the other didn't. Made for some interesting landings. So easy to do once the beeps are explained. Cheers

    Enjoyed the video . I subscribed. 👍 I used to fly a lot . But have not flew in many years . I was in the attic yesterday and took down a couple of planes . I have old JR controllers and the batteries were gone . So I ordered some new radios so I can teach my grandkids to fly on a buddy cord . My name is Tim and I live in Las Vegas. I'm retired pipefitter welder out of local #525 .... I like the plane you used in the video . I have quite a few planes in the attic. Some nitro and some electric brushless. All nice . Just old lol 😆

    ThankDave for your reply, have many planes and tried middle and down doesn't seem to affect full throttle just seems motors start earlier, like to have one or two notches before they do, so will stick with middle as you say. Good info thanks again for your reply much app! Just bought mine awaiting maiden gonna stick with flaps at half for first landing, any advice or vices it may have would appreciate any info. Kind regards Graham.

    You don't have a software for selecting the different options for your ESCs? What firmware are they running by the way?

    Thanks for sharing and have a great week Dave :)

    • @DaveMerc
      @DaveMerc  7 років тому

      This twin airplane is a different situation than a miniquad because there is no configuration tool and no multirotor FC. It's just too ESCs on a Y-cable.
      Happy to hear that you like the new format of the video. I will do a tutorial on how it was done with Magix movie editor soon.

    Thanks for the video, I just cant figure out why one of my counter rotating props in my twin is in reverse. thanks in advance.

    • @DaveMerc
      @DaveMerc  6 років тому

      If your talking about a reversed motor you can just swap two of the three wires. Or if you have a reversing ESC it could be the channel is reversed or both.

    • @adventurwithken412
      @adventurwithken412 6 років тому

      Dave Merc Productions thanks for taking the time to respond. When I match up the ESC colors with the motor, they both spin CW, but when I swap two of the three wires on one side, It pushes that motor backwards (reverse) and CCW. So now I have CCW with one motor going forward when the other going reverse.

  • @foxprogt
    @foxprogt 7 років тому

    Your videos came in handy when i needed to put my BM together. Thanks. Now i know why brake is useful on a glider but does it have the same benefit on a plane like this? With brake on would there be less drag and a extended glide slope?

    • @DaveMerc
      @DaveMerc  7 років тому

      I am finding that bush mule works better with the brake off so the props spin freely. It will stall without the motors running. I think the brake is most useful with a folding prop like on a glider.

      I have them on a y-cable for now but you can do it either way. Perhaps you want differential thrust for example then you could use separate throttle channels.
