    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    I had an old TF 15x7 wood I sanded down for a thinner blade. Bolted it to the motor and hover authority is much better and really putting some load to good use. Battery is actually getting warm now and motor gets hot. I held the plane at the wing tip and got 8 minutes of solid hovering with the...

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    Not necessarily negative but as is with most touch screens out doors......I CAN'T SEE IT! Even in the shade. Guess I have to try the optional cover for the display. Pops up for a sun shade.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Got out and maiden the electric Sbach and new radio. Uneventful and the radio performed flawlessly. Field was pretty soggy from all the rain we have had but my foamies did not care. Hand launched the QQ300. The Sbach handled the soggy ground very well! Lots of bugs tho! Gnats pretty thick as you...

    Maiden was successful and so were the subsequent flights. But lets talk radio first. The feel during take off and landing was spot on and the expo dialed in was appropriate for I set throws for maximum allowed by this planes geometry which is..... Ail- 1.5" up dn. 60%expo Ele- 3" up 2.75dn. 80%...

    Yes to both:rolleyes:. Just poking Chris. Ball bearings smooth as silk. Non ratcheting throttle (I like). Feels as good stick wise as the 14sg but more comfortable to hold because it weighs half as much. It is WAY better feel to me than the 10c I used to have. I'm just throwing this out...

    Got some pics showing model and motor run times along with voltage alert (set to 17vH 14.2vL). Fully charged 16.8V got 9800 rpm. I let it run several minutes at about 5500 rpm and gunned the throttle a few times and jogged it a few times to mimic hovering and pull outs. The UBEC voltage never...

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    Just a tid bit more info on the functionality of this radio....... Selectable RF..........Allows the use of any Turnigy receiver made. So again like Futaba. I'm starting to think Futaba let a design engineer escape their employment sort a like OS did several years back :eek:.

    This is what gets to go flying this weekend. The QQ is structural wood structural foam. The Sbach has a wood "wing spar" that is slid in like a wing tube but the wood inside the fuse is for mounting only. It wont hold up like the QQ300 so any crash is going to be ugly. Lets hope not.

    I have a HUGE desire to! The EXP Edge has tickled me fancy. I have a slightly used YS DZ70 I was going to convert the EXP to glow with but these electric motors have such a wide power band and smooth as silk operation.

    @cbarnes0061 See :geek:.......I just cant help myself......Electricity......Who invented this stuff any way!?!? :laughing:. Being the electric bug has bitten again if all checks out me thinks a built up electric such as the PA or EF 60"ers may have to further decorate the living room.

    That is the plan! But 2.4 is 2.4 and the 2.4 modulation frequencies are rather better suited from interference causing an issue. The biggest issue IMO is signal strength. Digital signals are very weak compared to 72Mghz. So antenna placement and range is getting scrutinized as well as...
