Thanks for posting those numbers. I had to turn my Brake Gyro gain up to 60% to get it to stop straight. I'm running my pulse rate at 1/10, and Steering Gyro at 30%. I've got the steering gyro set to Heading Hold mode and I've been very impressed with how well it tracks. When I do my take-off roll the gyro will keep the jet right on the center line for the entire take-off roll I'm also using this unit in my T-1 with the same settings with Electron brakes and it's also working well.
One thing I noticed this past weekend was my main gear only went up half way on two different flights, had to cycle them in flight to get them to fully retract. I've checked the gear and they are not binding so I'm thinking I need to increase the cutoff amperage by a .1 amps and try it again. -Tom

wow! I think thats the one I had in my shop and didn't like the color. I got three flights on mine this weekend. I think the CG is still too far forward. It was windy where we were, but it just didn't lock in like I thought it would. No gyro. Moved a battery back and will try again.

How did you fix the landing gear in the wing?
With the included parkers?
Thanks

This damage, while substaintial, is not structural.
still impressive it held on well with these breaks in flight.

Man that looks like a really tight flying site, all those light poles and trees! Nice flight!

Yes, the light poles spice things up a bit, but they are not actually as intrusive as they appear. The runway is only 300' so getting proficient at landing is important -Tom

Help this does not line up. Even with stock linkage.

In this case I would just use 3mm ball link on both side....I’m using MKS 737 on mine and they align fine....different servo’s different sizes....

That’s great, I guess that takes care of my concern about taking off and landing on our 400’ runway. What turbine do you have in yours? I have a K70.

I used the same MpJet hardware, with what appears to be the same offset. Had to use a ball link on one side...no problem. MKS 747's
