    Servos best power and holding power

    @express just got me set up with Hitec 9380TH I like these because of the holding power feature. They cannot fade as long as the battery has power. The servos have a regenerative function which sends power back to the batteries. They operate at 1/3 the power as a normal servo. This all from Hitec.

    Servos best power and holding power

    Soooo my big aileron Extra is flying and although my very old BLS157's work on the BIG ailerons I want something with more power. I like what I hear about the Hitec 9380TH but those will not be back in stock until next year even though Tower says late October. And there is a loooong list of...

    3D Big Ailerons

    I got several flights on it today. With the old Futaba 6014 receiver I had NO problems. The ZDZ is a power house. I am really liking the power and smooth transition, even with it still running rich. These ailerons have SO much authority! Does whatever you want to:fist_pump: @Express has some...

    3D Big Ailerons

    Sooooo I have switched receivers and added a 4th servo to the wings. This is the provision Tony made for a 4th servo. What do you think? It's the inside servo. I think it might have been better spread out in the wing. I will find out tomorrow :dancing-chicken:

    Lol it was hard on the nerves to say the least. I feel extremely lucky. I'm not sure what happened but I don't think the receiver could handle it. I have the same set up on dozens of planes but with the old 6014 receivers.

    I can't say 100% for sure it was the receiver but I cannot find anything else wrong.

    3D Big Ailerons

    Test flight complete. It fly's great. I love the thin wing and control surfaces. It floats like the stock Extra. I am going to add a 4th servo to each wing. Tony made a provision for it and when I finish it I will post pics. Someone got some video and when he down loads it I'll post it. Not much...

    Si For sure. I have someone that will get some video if all works out but don't expect a lot. New engine, new plane, might be a pretty mellow for a while.

    I do love that scheme:I_agree: That is one of the easiest schemes for me to see in the air. For some reason I see green better than any other color in the air.

    3D Big Ailerons

    I started at 1 1/2 on both and I would recommend that. The low was turned in a hair but I left the high end for now. I am at sea level so it maybe different. The thing that amazes me the most is how easy it starts. Always 4 flips on choke and 4 flips to running. Never changes. From the feel on...
