Default RE: Hanger 9 Ultimate.

I have been with helping Steve with this problem from the start. Its very odd to say the least. With the plane setting with the wings off, it will range check fine, I guess 200 ft. With the wings on and all aileron servo's "UNPLUGGED" the problem arrises. A proper range check per JR is done with the antenna off. And the distance from the plane to failsafe is under 100 ft. At one time while walking back to the plane I was probably 50 ft from the plane and it still locked up. Receiver antenna's have been routed to the outside of the plane and taped to the covering, temporarily. All servo leads are twisted wire, custom made with chokes. Everything is new, gone over 50 times, its sanitary, done right and wont work. There has been over 60yrs of RC experience troubleshooting this plane and one Team JR guy and were all stumped. BTW, all of JR's reccomendations: new crystals, chokes then a new receiver #3 has been done..This is nothing obvious. Walt
