  • @abyssalreclass
    @abyssalreclass ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I use a three position switch for gear and another three position switch for lighting. On my gear switch, up is gear up and landing light off, middle is gear up and landing light on/deployed, and down is gear down with landing light on. For my light switch, up is off, middle is nav lights, and down is nav + strobe lights. Reason for this system is that I have only one two position switch on my radio (Frsky) and it is reserved for throttle hold, a carryover from getting started flying helicopters before moving to fixed wing.

    • @thelightersideofrc
      @thelightersideofrc  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Nice! What ever works for your brain is good! Far too often I see people looking down at their radio trying to find a switch. Big no no. Should all be easy to find with your fingers.

    • @abyssalreclass
      @abyssalreclass ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@thelightersideofrc What I find to be just as important is consistency. I still fly helicopters from time to time, so while it is a challenge, I try to map equivalent functions to the same switches even across aircraft types (Gyro/Autopilot to Helicopter Gyro, throttle hold to motor kill, Idle up to flight mode/flaps, etc.) Unfortunately with my system the switches start in different positions based on the model, though I can program my transmitter with the intended starting positions for each model, and it won't load the model until everything is either correct or skipped, so loading the model is always the last thing I do right before powering it on.

      Thanks Hank! Yea Spring time for sure! We have a tool on route that makes the Xicoy Balancer a breeze to use. On some planes the simple hanging method is just easy. Merry Christmas and Happy new Year!

    Do you check CG without Kerosene or with the usual amount that would be left after a flight?

      Always is Landing condition. Gear down. UAT Full and with the amount of fuel you expect to be landing with.

  • @davewilshere
    @davewilshere ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Did you balance with fuel in the centre tank? All the fuel is in front of the balance. I’m back of the rear tube with over 1tr of fuel in the centre tank. I would remove most of the Aileron Expo…also just go 100% DR to start with, it’s very soft in roll and pitch. (I call switch position check…UP & Away. Front up and top away)
