Channel is to show the RC Hobby and to have fun doing it. I want to show the RC hobby and what is good what is okay and when things break how to repair them!
ABOUT 25Percent "Negative" Expo will Make a Brick do A Drill Bit in the Sky. U may know that,. Just saying used Judiciously It's Amazing. Can Stress Airframes, What the Heck u only live once.
I just finished my Crack Yak build, anxiously awaiting the maiden, but the motor was bad, so need to wait for the replacement. Enjoy the channel and your effort in putting it all together. All the best.
So was that the tires or coming down too hard and then the soft tires give way? A bit of a drop vs a buttered landing. Of course, knowing the tires are soft we need to land smoothly. I struggle with not dropping the last foot.
Sorry, In my opinion you have to do the same thing you already do with another timber in your video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4rrvegXySDc.htmlsi=_xrZHMlQlpabrGJN
We live and learn. I am modifying my Super Timber today, putting Grand Tundra tires on it as well as modifying the main landing plate plus reinforcing the substructure with aircraft plywood to toughen up the whole fuselage area around the main landing gear plate. Hopefully this fixes the issues because I love the way this plane flys.
I just completed mine today. I used a servo wire extension and taped the original before I pulled it thru. Then removed the steering servo to remove the tape and separate the connection. Pulled out the old retract wire. Put in the T33 wire and fed it to the steering servo area. Reconnected the servo extension and taped it. Carefully pulled it back thru the airframe and under the battery tray. The only slightly tricky part was the retract plate was slight crooked due to the holes being just a bit off. I was able to adjust the retract straight and tighten the 4 screws. Worked great. I did have a servo reverse issue and had to get a different one. I'll be buying the ones you recommended to ensure I don't have a problem. Thanks for your video. It really was helpful and helped me make the decision to proceed.
I've got a question on the servo reverser. Will they all work? The one I bought (had in the toolkit) seems to function well for my steering servo. It only seems to work the first time plug in a battery fir the retracts. Have you had any issues with the one in the description? I'm planning to get those tomorrow but wanted to check in. Thanks.
I eliminated the servo reverser. I was fixing the original retract and saw how it was put together. I then locate the MotionRC T33 gear. Same size. So i took that apart and put the gear in the original. Actually fairly easy. Take it apart, get the case to close and it must be tight so the wires need to be in fully. Then screwed back together. Checked it before reinstalling and worked perfectly. Just need to pay attention to the setup. Now to fly it when the wind is not 12-15mph. Ping me if you want help.
The Super Timber does fly great however be warned the factory glue on the main landing gear plate has been failing for many of Me and my friends Super Timbers. I Modified mine with a piece of aircraft plywood and 4 screws. Hope that resolved this issue permanently . Good maiden video.
I purchased the servo reverser 2-pack that you recommended from Amazon. It only works when you put it in line with the battery power already applied. But when you unplug the battery and connect it again, the nose gear servo no longer actuates. So I tried putting the two servo reversers on the main gear instead…same thing happens. Not sure what is going on, nor how to correct this, other than trying a different servo reverser.
I think I figured it out. The reverser uses a slight amount of power. I added a 4in servo wire that I can easily disconnect each time I swap a battery. A pain but it likely will work since I can disconnect/reconnect without the ears on the main gear 3-way y holding the reverser in.
I checked with Horizon and here is what I got back from the "bot"Is it possible to increase the output voltage of the AR631 on a channel? The T-28 1.2m has a 3-way y-harness and I need to put a servo reverser on it and it seems the output voltage is a little low when split 3 ways. Virtual Assistant I'm sorry, but it's not possible to increase the output voltage of the AR631 on a channel. The AR631 has a minimum operational voltage of 3.5 volts and a maximum of 9.6 volts. It's also important to note that when using Y-harness or servo extensions with Spektrum equipment, do not use reversing harnesses as it may cause servos to operate erratically or not function at all.
