While flying a plane I have flown all summer I had a failure that I am at a loss to figure out. While attemptinging a Pop Top all the surfaces locked in full deflection and no motor response. I retrieved the plane and starting looking to see what happened. The battery was still hooked up and the all the servo’s were still "locked" at full deflection… any attempt to manual move them just resulted in them buzzing at me telling me they were not budging lol, and still no throttle response from the motor. I disconnected the Lipo pack and tested the voltage, all was good there and still had 37% charge on the pack. I run 4 AA brand name batteries in my transmitter and I set my warning alarm for 4.8v, voltage check on the transmitter was 5.0-5.1v at the time. So after going through the hardware I decided to see what happened if I plugged the Lipo pack back in the plane? You guess it, everything worked just fine… minus the wreckage, Grrrrrr!!!!
Here is a list of hardware I was using.
Transmitter: Tactic TTX650
Receiver: Tactic TR624
Servo’s: Savox SH-0255MG
Motor: Hacker A30-14L w/13 x 6.5 prop
ESC: Castle Ice Lite 50
3s 2200 30c
If anyone knows of or has heard of any issues with these components listed, or can just tell me what the heck happened I would greatly appreciate it. Do not want to watch another plane come spiraling down and crash like that.
