new 2.4 ghz 7c problem

I am wondering if there is a fix to the zero id problem on 7c radios. I just purchased a 7c a month ago and read about other people having their radios loose their id. With these reports were...

RE: Storage charge for long term?

I take it from your lack of responce that you are uncertain as to the effects of the storage temperature on these cells. I am going to treat them as other lithium cells and go with cold...

RE: Storage charge for long time?

Ok, so if I am reading your post correctly -- six months months or less- just let them be and they will be fine, longer than six months it would be better to store them at 3.3v per cell.

RE: DeWalt has 36 volt problems in Home Depot ???

I heard it was for the cost. Home Depot thinks the 36v line is kind of pricey and may not sell as well. Also there was something about dewalt having a recall on the circular saw, there was a blade...

RE: Matt Chapman cap 580 .40 size

I would have to agree with Sean ( ifixairplanes ), this is a fairly tame plane on landings. I have even had a few dead sticks and floated in without a problem. Be mindful of your elevator usage and...

RE: Matt Chapman cap 580 .40 size

Well I have converted the 580 to electric. I have not had it the air yet though. I had a radio problem with my first 580 and she went in hard. I really only needed a new wing, the fuse made it...

RE: matt chapman cap 580 conversion

I used the mounting hardware that comes with the power 60 motor. It's just a radial mount and I added some nylon spacers to bring it off the firewall the distance required in the instruction manual....

RE: matt chapman cap 580 conversion

RE: Matt Chapman cap 580 .40 size

I have wondered how it would do with a 46 on it too. They had to have flown it with one if that's what they recommend for it, but I tend to lean toward the "more is better" end of things. :D

RE: Matt Chapman cap 580 .40 size

I use standard futaba 3004 servos with a 6 volt receiver pack. The 6 volts gives you the recommended torque out of the servos. I ran with the stock tank and it did ok, just did not give me nice long...

RE: Taking a RC Heli on a Airplane

Man, the way they toss luggage around and cram it in places, I don't think I would try it. You could always call the airlines to see if it's even a possibility.

RE: Matt Chapman cap 580 .40 size

I have mixed feelings on the nylon bolts for holding the wing on. I like the idea of them snapping and not causing as much damage in a crash, but I also witnessed them snapping in mid flight for no...

RE: Matt Chapman cap 580 .40 size

Plastic screws, thats not a bad idea. I think my problem originated at the factory with a light glue job, but I fixed that now and it's back in action. I might try the nylon screws though, just so...

RE: Matt Chapman cap 580 .40 size

I used a thin bead of clear silicone caulk for the canopy and then added 4 screws toward the corners. The caulk keeps it from grabbing air and holds it down good, also it's not to bad if you ever...

RE: OMP Edge Mess....But not for Long

It glides across the snow real nice. You don't want to get into too deep of snow unless it's packed good, otherwise the tail wire wants to sink and the rudder sinks in then. It tracks great though.
