    IMAC JTEC/ Radiowave 3.1m competition series

    Realizing again tonight the insanity this hobby brings to one's life. Brought the trainer out to clean up, it is what I built and flew in 2011. Four years and just for a " few dollars more" , the JTEC was airborne january 2015. Nuts right! LOL

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Well Gentlemen we have a solution to my woes !!! Faulty im22 unit picking up signal /rf from broken circuit is my best explanation. Replaced with a good ol jr matchbox, checked all connections, none were bound too tight or bent oddly, ran her up and up and up bout 30-40 times and ZERO glitch...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Found that the rudder lead is standard jr flat lead going to rudder, must have been trying to save weight, that will be replaced with tail dragger hd tonight before the test run. The list of possibilities is shrinking. Interesting on the zip ties idea, going to replace some of them w one wrap...

    Club 40 Racing? (Yes, I know they're not Giants)

    Ill tell ya, last weekend, problems with my plane, problems with buddys plane, buddy busts out 15.00 yard sale revamped trainer and spent couple hours just relaxing, doing touch n goes and goofing off. Was a blast getting back to basics and playing with a slimer again. Made me want to do it more.

    bizarre issue with airplane

    The im22 did show some damage from vibration, the case was slightly seperated from its mount. Match box will be suspended and wrapped in foam instead of hard mount to fuse this time in case.

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Thanks to the boss and overtime all I got done was to swap out the im22 to standard match box and to inspect everything in the tail section, servoes appear perfect and no loose wires, connections etc all the way back to the RX , didn't think the neighbors would appreciate a run up at 10pm so...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Mechanical centering is perfect but have concerns about im22 unit, only because its new gadget for me, and the twitch only happens when engine is running above 5/8 throttle, so RF or vibration seems to be most likely suspect. Problem does not show on another model so tx kinda being ruled out so...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Ive disconnected all telemetry and turned it off at tx, re bound system, disconnected the fromeco dc up capacitor, the satellite s aee oriented in a cross shape with one facing each axis , flat, upright, 45° sideways, Wishing I could take off work to solve this but the bosses just dont quite...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Another thing that was noticed. Yhe tm100 telemetry unit was flashing on- off on the TX and the problem " seemed" to not happen with only the A satellite plugged in, note, the A satellite is the one closest to the sparkbox, that will be re arranged to rearmost placement, but you'd think that...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Seems to be still happening at throttle up posotionw, servoes are fine. Going to try to make it happen on different model tomorrow. All leads connected and tear free. Thinking to switch out IM unit for jr matchbox if I cant duplicate it on another model. Actually hoping its a servo pot since...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Checked every connection for continuity and fit. All good there, most connections are heat shrinked or clipped. Ill try cross checking against another airplane, it is an older dx8. Thanks guys, thanks bunky.

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Lemme see if I can explain this. .. when at full throttle or 5/8 throttle my rudder servoes twitch usually to the left, thus doesn't happen when the plane is not running, engine off, 1/4 throttle or anywhere else except full throttle. Have.. re bound system. Have... pluggef in one satellite at...
