I just read that MPI had an older version of the M-Y that was not compatible with a 6v.. Gonna give MAXX a call and see what they say as well. Has nayone else heard of this M-Y issue with MPI?

Thanks... Lots of electronic mumbo-jumbo to look at.. I think that I'll bang in a 4.8 v and call it good. 61 oz vs. 76 oz of torque trade off...

RE: PCM Receiver Problem

Why would there be no effect on the other servos (t,r,a)? Why did the single servo that I plugged into ch 2 work? What role does the M-Y play? I'm using Hitec digitals for the elevator servos..

RE: PCM Receiver Problem

Just tried a 4.8v and it works..... What's up with that??? Why does a M-Y work with a 6v and a PPM RX and not with a 6v and a PCM???

RE: H9 Funtana Fuel Tank Size with Saito 91

I have a FA-91 in mine also... Always get a good 10-12 mins out of her with the stock tank. 14x4 apc, 20/20 fuel and never a dead stick. After that much time I'm pretty spent and ready to land.

RE: Holding Wings while glue sets

Try wrapping with a string with a rubberband in the middle tied to both ends. No tape and plenty-o-room to clean up oozing glue. Holds the halves together really well until the glue cures.

RE: Sig Sukhoi SU31???

Got one of the latest versions on the bench as we speak. So far, so good. Still trying to decide what motor to put in her. Thinking maybe the DA-50 might work well. What would you guys recommend?

RE: I want a foam wing, but which one?

Just my 2 cents but I would go with the XE2 by Combatwings. Me and a bunch of guys in the neighborhood fly the planes daily with the only goal being to knock your buddy out of the air. The XE2 can...
