Thanks dkr sharing this video. I have this receiver in a new E-Flite A10. Will I be able restore the current configured settings to the receiver after upgrading to 3.x? AS3X+?
So it's a CONFUSION, in some tutorials and about this "UPDATE", some say one thing and others say another thing!!! Some, after the "update", choose "USE DEVICE SETTINGS", others choose "USE COMPUTER SETTINGS"!!!! AFTER ALL WHAT IS IT?????
Thanks for this video and the part 2 video. They are very clear and simple. Best 2 videos I have found. I feel a lot better doing this now.
Thank you very much for that and I do appreciate it and it was a great help. Your part 2 was a good for those that dont use gyro but this was great. Thanks and I liked and sub to your channel Eddie and Im Joe and if I missed something on your part 2 on why it wont help me about gyro then let me know bud. Thanks again👍👍👍👍👍
for the win!!!
In the video you state you applied something to the surface before the paint. What was that?
@@joepellissier2091 that was a medical tape called “Blenderm”. It seals the the hinge gap. I get mine at my local pharmacy.
Since using this for a while, are you still happy with the sound when flying? Have you change to use the flight battery or are you still using the extra battery?
I still use the sound module every time I fly this plane and I still love it. I am using the extra battery to power the unit.
Congratulations you won the Tuco’s Five Landing Challenge. Eddie please email your Tee shirt size, and color choices. My new shirts are Light Blue, Yellow, and Green they are sized a little smaller than the Spring shirts. I'll order your Five Landings World Champion shirt from Spring and mail you the Trophy and shirts. Jeff
Wow thanks Jeff! I just sent you an email…
Doesn’t it make the plane heavier to fly . They say not to add weight . Just wondering
@@jimpuff8409 it does add minimal weight on a plane this size but it does not effect the performance. I would not recommend this on a mini or micro size plane where weight is more important.
Eddie Niiiiiiiiiiice, Jeff in LA USA
Good explanation and video. Thank you for doing this video.
@@rlbutterfield thank you… I hope it was able to help you.
Well done, Eddie. You will definitely be a contender. Congratulations on your completion of the 5 landings challenge.👍🏻🙂
Thanks for the comment!
great product...the 'brown' looks good on camo schemes...😎
I think so too!
That's pretty cool!
Hey Eddie, a great Tuco 5 landing challenge entry my friend! A gorgeous evening to fly as well! Thumbs up and good luck!
@@Cadillacstsv06 thank my Friend. I had a great time doing it and I hope lots of folks submit their entries!
Well done Eddie very good landings 🤓👍
Thanks for the comment and for subscribing!
🤓👍
I think you are ready for a carrier landing ;)
Trying to snag that 3 wire!
Eddie fantastic flying and landings. Jeff in IA USA
Thanks Jeff!
HI EDDIE THANKYOU FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO WITH US. GOOD LUCK TO YOU SIR AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT TAKES PART. HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT WEEK 🇬🇧🇺🇲🇨🇦🇦🇺✌🏼🤩
Thanks, you too!
Love my Husky, what a fantastic plane. Its even easier than the Timber to land being nice and heavy with those huge wings, it just plops right where you want when you want. Unlike the Timber, Tundra, or Bigfoot that like to float a bit because they are so light.
Couldn't agree more!
Good video. Thanks. Does the new Rx Version 3 enabling AS3X+ give your Rxs additional channels, or just new features?
No this update does not give you additional channels to the receiver. There is an update for appropriate radios that does increase the number of channels of the radio.
@@eddieksrc Yes. I saw the NX and IX series Txs get the high channel count, 20 or so. I only have the DX so I guess I'll have to upgrade to an NX if I want the extra channels.
Eddie great looking Husky and fantastic flying. Jeff in LA USA
Thank you my Friend!
Nice Eddie !!! 👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻
Thanks 👍
Hi Eddie K! Some very nice touch-and-goes sir!
Hey, thanks!
GREAT PLANE. AS I ALWAYS SAY CAN'T GO WRONG WITH A HIGH WING PROP PLANE 🇺🇲👍🏼
You said it!
HI EDDIE THANKS FOR SHARING 🇺🇲✌🏼🤩
Thanks for watching
Have you ever considered laying down geotex fabric on your runway?
Not really Scott… I’m kind of a grass snob and I’ve put a a lot of time and money on my Bermuda grass. I would hate to kill it with the geotex…
@@eddieksrc definitely understand that. I notice all the planes I've seen you fly are pretty large so they seem to do well on the grass. All of my planes are 1.2 wingspan and they really struggle on the grass at my club's airfield. Luckily there is a concrete runway.
@@HobbySoonerI think the key is mowing really low. I cut my runway at 1” during the growing season and I scalp it when the grass grows dormant.
Good video thank you 😊
@@feelgooddany thank you for the comment!
Good job Eddie, I updated today per your video. Thanks man!
I think you will like it. AS3X+ is rock solid!
@@eddieksrc Holy cow! Just flew my F-35 on the new update. I hated this plane until now. So crisp! Thanks again Eddie.
I put my planes into SAFE mode to check the gyro response. If that option works like that if you don't have SAFE enabled, it would be easier to tell what the surfaces are doing. I take the prop off when setting up my planes. To check the gyro direction on the rudder, you have to open the throttle above 25% to activate AS3X. If the Gyro Response utility makes the rudder move without opening the throttle, that would be good. I don't go to a new restaurant until they're been open for at least 30 days. So, it'll be about a month before I install the new firmware.
Nice video but you forgot to point out that the Spektrum PC Programmer has also been updated to v3.9 dated 07-18-2024. Previous versions MAY NOT update your receivers properly.
Did you update your tx for 20 channels?
Yes I did update the TX
Great video, thanks!!
Thank you so much!
Excellent, I just started playing with the nose wheel gyro.
@@notoo7 I’m going to check that out tonight.
Dang that’s big! I have the smaller t28 Trojan!
@@GenealRC225 she’s a big baby doll!
Can you adjust the safe angles? Pitch up 50 to 60?
@@TheRyaninspokane yes, that is my understanding
Of course you can.
Hey Eddie, another awesome video of the firmware update of the AR637TA! Well explained and filmed for each step of the way! Thumbs up!
@@Cadillacstsv06 you’re too kind… thanks my Friend!
I wasn't aware of such update! Thank you Eddie! Keep it up!
Thank you for the comment!
I have 4 updated So... far! only 1 needed me to factory reset it again. FM was not functioning properly. model names in the programmer seemed to have limited characters on some recievers.
I have factory reset 3 of mine so far because they were all BNF receivers. Not sure about your other issues…
A bit off topic here but I noticed that you had a multi servo connection block from the wings to the receiver, what did you use for this? I have been looking for a solution for while as the "rats nest" is doing my head in 😆. Maybe another video showing this?
@@joemusto5973 good pickup… yes it is an Electro Dynamics unit. I believe it is a 4 servo unit. You will need 2 of these sets.
@@joemusto5973 www.electrodynam.com
@@eddieksrc Thats great Eddie, thanks for the reply. Weathering on the plane is awsome btw 😀
@@eddieksrc Thanks again Eddie, looking to see if I can source one in the UK, or they may even post to me!
@joemusto5973 thanks buddy…
Thanks Eddie great video!! Quick question..So if I just do a factory reset on my receiver from my Transmitter it will automatically upgrade it to the AS#X+ firmware? I don't have to download it from my laptop?
Yes you need to watch my first video because you do need to download the update to your receiver.
th-cam.com/video/HMRM8_eMwzg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-itdn0kB749_CduX
Ahhh yes ...didn't see the "part 2" ...need more coffee!! Thanks again! Keep up the goodwork.
Eddy great video on setting the RX + Jeff in LA USA
@@JeffinLowerAlabama thanks my Friend!
Nice video Eddie, thanks for posting it 👍🏻👍🏻
I’m glad I decided to do the videos. I hope it helps some of the guys that are having troubles with the update…. Thanks for the encouragement my Friend!
great info...
Thanks for the comment!
Great Job Ed! Maybe Spektrum should hire you to make their videos.
@@afterburnerrc6333 Haaa… thanks… I’m afraid we are all beta testers most of the time…
Could you immediately go fly after this update (in other words does it keep all your old settings) or do you have to run through the setup again as if you just installed a brand new receiver?
To access all the new AS3X+ features you need to factory reset the receiver in forward programming and then set up AS3X+ in your radio. I will post up a video on how I did that very soon.
@@eddieksrc And your Tx must also be updated to at least SW Version 2.10 to take advantage of the AS3X+ new features.
Hey Eddie, fantastic video of the receiver update! Look forward to the next video! Thumbs up!
Thanks for the comment…
DON’T BUY a sound module for this T-28. What the poster did NOT SHOW was in-flight performance, which is abysmal. I tried it, a friend has tried it, and because of the foam thickness in this model, the sound is just too quiet to make the expense worth while. All of this is just my opinion of course.
th-cam.com/video/VahZOToUM4A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=yeA0CXpYGcKqE7O_
Sounds nice in my opinion, and have had tons of compliments at the flying field.
I waiting for my Night radian glider. If I sand it smooth do you think that would give it a better glide and less drag? Its made of EPO foam.
Nice flights Eddie, the Super Timber is a joy to fly 👍🏻👍🏻
It is CVO… it’s quickly becoming one of my favorites.
