Xantos

I just got the new Spektrum DX 18 and was plannin to use it in a Skygate Skywalker.
The Skywalker is like a bigger version of the Multiplex Funjet .
The Skywalker manual calls for programming the control surfaces as Elevons.
I finally managed to get everything working with the DX18 , but in the main system menu after you selct the Wing Type as Delta , It offers 2 elevon options :

[*]Elevons[*]Elevon B[/list]I could not figure out what Elevon B was and the programming manual offers no detail on it.
Has anybody tried the Elevon B option .

Have you got more details on the Skywalker Xantos? Link to web site?

Dominic,
Skygate was taken over by CARF and I dont think they maintain the SG website anymore.
Attaching a pic for you reference though

DominicM

Ok. Thanks. Looks very nice.

On the CARF site it says they only brought the designs for the "BAE Hawk", "L-39 Albatros" and "ViperJet Mk2" from Skygate Collection so would seem its out of production.

Out of interest what's the recommend engine range and what are you putting in it?

A PST 1300R goes into it (120 size)
A friend of mine has a Jetcentral Cheetah in it

DominicM

Nice. Such a shame its not made anymore. If you have or get any vid of one flying please post it.

Xantos, I think Elevon B reverses the servo direction, you can try it and check on the monitor screen.

Dominic,
You are right the Skywalker is out of production , I dont think CARF will be interested in it.
I dont have a video but I test flew my friend's Skywalker with the Cheetah and it was a BLAST !
Its like a BIG Funjet on steroids and cocaine and the slow speed is fantastic too.

I dont think Elevon B only reverses , that option is available from the reverse menu any way.
The Elevon B option shows up on the menu screen with an additional servo in the center .
