Default RE: www.Learning 3D step by step - 2

Good thread alright, however, did'nt work on my Flip

BigNed, my UCD had a Saito 1.80 for power (here we go), so I could'nt quite tell you if that's the optimal motor. Many liked the OS.91 as well. User preferance, I guess.

"Yaw Coupling": Fly yer plane straight and level, at about 1/2 power & 2mistakes-hi. Add rudder only to turn (either direction). Carefully observe aircrafts tendencies (pitch and roll). Land. Make corrections within your Tx mixes. Fly again, observe again, land again, correct again.

Continue to add mixes 'till she tracks pretty true thru a rudder turn, in both directions. Then check KE flight.

**Note: regardless of what you do, chances are, aircraft will never fly a level rudder turn with full rudder deflection, so don't break your head. 2/3 rudder imput is more than sufficient.

I'm gonna get soooo fired, if I don't get back to work...
