Default RE: Twist 3D 40 size set up advice


ORIGINAL: Blade-breaker

Hey everybody,

I have a Hanger 9 Twist 3D coming to me and I am looking for any advice I can get to get it set up for 3D flying. I have been flying planes for quite a while but just recently have gotten the itch to get crazy with 3D.

I have a new O.S. .55AX for this plane and I ordered quite a assortment of props to test with. I have some Futaba Digital servos to use on the plane and a light weight batt. pack for it (3.3oz).

Any suggestions you may have to help me set the plane up to be a 3D monster will be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks!

lithium receiver batt running a regulator, ditch the clevises and plastic hard ware that comes with it and install ball links instead...(zero slop) use fast as hell servos with tons of throw.

make sure you have all your travel adjusts at 100%....if the surfaces move to much use shorter arms...too little buy bigger ones....haveing an ATV of under 100% decreases servo resolution and accuracy. Use at least 15% nitro in your engine and keep it light as possible.
