RE: Need help with my Electrifly Tiger Moth

RE: Propeller advise for multiplex parkmaster

If the ESC doesn't work but emits a series of beeps after the battery is connected, it 's more than likely that the ESC is not recognising the signal from the throttle channel. To set the throttle...

RE: ultrafly motor

Missing circlip perhaps? At the rear of the motor, the short length of shaft that protrudes from the back bearing should be retained by a small circlip and possibly a washer. If it's missing, you'll...
