Hey guys, hope all is well! I have gliching! I had five JR SPort125MG sevos' and all was well, had five flights on the Cap Upgraded to five Hitec 5645 and now I have gliching? I'm still usng the 4.8 1500ma JR battery and the JR SPORT reciever, all harness and extensions are heavy duty as well as the switch. I used the Aluminum servo arms that came with the 5645 then changed them to heavy duty plastics and still have the gliching? Any ideas?
Is this with the engine off or running or both. Does it get worse with the engine running?
Start disconnecting the servos from the receiver one at a time to see if the problem goes away. Finding a glitch is no picnic and the best way is a very methodical approve to it.
If you are using the JR Sport receiver that would be the first place I would look. The JR Sport stuff is not the best thing for a model of this size and bigger digital servos. The JR Sport anything do not hold up well in larger models as they are built for low vibration, everyday sport flying. I used the 125MG servos in a Showtime wit a YS110 and within 10 flights they got really sloppy and would no longer find center really well. I've seen the 6 channel JR Sport receiver start glitching within 25 flights on a Mini-Funtana
I'm not trying to pick on anyone but you must remember that when you start getting into planes of this size, especially gas powered or very large glow power, you need to start using higher quality stuff.
