    WP ULTIMATE m. OS MAX 46 FXi Graupner 9380.MX The ULTIMATE is an aerobatic biplane developed from the Pitts Special. Kits were made available, and in 1985 the first kit-built ULTIMATE took to the skies. Our model is capable of a full aerobatic schedule in the hands of a skilful pilot. The model is of conventional all-wood built-up construction, and all the major components including fuselage, wing panels, tailplane, fin and wing struts are supplied ready-made and film-covered, while the GRP cowl, wheel spats and aluminium undercarriage are factory-painted. To complete the model all you have to do is glue the fin and tailplane in place, and install the motor and RC system. The rudder and elevator are actuated using the proven Direct-Steel-System (DSS). Two servos are installed in the bottom wing, actuating all four ailerons: the top and bottom ailerons are inter-linked by means of pushrods, which can be disconnected for transportingthe model. The wing struts are attached to the wings by means of ball-links. With any of the recommended motors the model has plenty of power to perform a superb aerobatic schedule.
    Clear assembly instructions in German, English and French. Fuselage, wing panels, tailplane and struts ready-made and film-covered, pre-painted GRP cowl, wheel fairings and main undercarriage unit, canopy, fueltank, wheels, tailwheel unit, small items, linkage hardware pack.
    Rudder, coupled tailwheel
    Elevator
    Ailerons
    Throttle
    Wingspan approx. 1065 mm
    Overall length approx. 1130 mm
    Wing area approx. 37.3 dm²
    Tailplane area approx. 7.6 dm²
    Total surface area loading approx. 44.9 dm²

    We have discovered later when Captain Blaž brought the plane back that in fact it was signal loss again. We will film soon a video on our runway where we will test a few different recievers with a few different radios and see once and for all the range on our runway and what to use in the future. Should be pretty interesting. Thanks to all for stopping by here, for all your comments and for all support. After crash quick review on Thursday. Stay safe.

      My Flysky has A " Spectrum Anylizer" it shows interference and WiFi signals. We have a spot where the Wifi interference affect the signal. Maybe you Frsky has one 👍 Salute

      I'm looking forward for this video. I'm very curious as to what is causing the signal loss. I have a spectrum transmitter and would like to know if it is the cause of the signal loss. Waiting patiently for a video on this.

      Was the light in the orange receiver blinking when you looked at the plane? Just curious if it had a brownout.. Really sorry you had this crash. That bisexual plane was beautiful.

      Hey Guys!
      I have been having the exact same issue with my flying field in London UK, I tried so many different radio systems, Futaba, Orange, Frsky, Hobbyking, in the end it turns out that it is 5G.
      2.4g is no good.
      My background is Electronic, Electro, Mechanical engineering.
      5G is Too powerful or too loud,
      Even if it is on a different frequency, it's making so much frequency noise That your 2.4g TX and RX can not hear each other.
      I lost 5 planes last year.
      In the end I bought the Frsky R9 868mhz System.
      And that worked for me.
      Also 5G is like a laser beam, or a light beam, meaning it is very directional, hence the reason the plane always come down in the same spot.
      Searching the internet to find someone with the same problem was no good, but they are rolling out 5G to everyone and sadly you will start to see a lot more of this problem.
      I was pulling my hair out trying to figure it out because everyone said that it is not supposed to happen. But trust me it is 5G and it is happening.
      If you need any links to what equipment I bought, let me know and I can send you some helpful links
      Cheers Guys
      Thank you for the videos
      Best Regards

    I really love watching you guys,as you two were meant to be together like ying and yang , but I’m very sorry to see your pains of losing the plane especially after Captain Blaz did all that wonderful work to it and was having such a good flight , I totally agree with the fact that there’s definitely a signal loss in that exact area, it’s just like my cellphone loses it connection only in this one particular spot, but if I move 2 feet in any direction it’s back to full signal, it’s definitely a heart breaking feeling to watch such a beauty take such a crash because of something very unnecessary and shouldn’t have ever happened !! Hopefully she will fly again !! Keep up the Great Work and Vids !! 👍👍

    Sorry for your loss. I am sure you guys will sort it out. I am sure there are lots of things that can contribute to signal loss. I have lost planes, crashed cars and damaged boats due to issues with different radio systems that worked perfectly in the same area for a long time. I don't think brand bashing helps anyone as any system can have problems and won't help someone that just crashed their plane feel any better.

    I would highly recommend to do a range check.

Check where are antennas near by and investigate if they cross paths with the signal loss area. Good luck

      Yes Captain Blaz, it is strange and so frustrating. I can't tell you how many times I've seen pilots holding their transmitters up yelling, "I've got nothing!!" as we watched the planes go in. And always in the same area!
      With wifi, 5G, 2.4G, Bluetooth, etc., the air is getting so polluted with different radio signals, it's not a surprise this is happening more frequently. 😣

      Spektrum DSMX also uses the hopping tech. They changed it years ago!!!

      @@scotabot7826, respectfully, my Understanding is they Spektrum hops between just two frequencies, Futaba, Graupner, and several others hop between dozens of frequencies. At least that's how it was explained to me by others in our local club who researched options to overcome the Spektrum brown outs that plague our flying field. Is that inaccurate? All I can tell you is those who switched away from Spektrum are no longer experiencing brown outs, while Spektrum pilots continue to do so.

    Not much else you can do, except a 360 radio check or quit using that dx8. It was going so well and looked great CPT Blaz, great zooming Pilot Robert, Jeff in LA USA

    Ah Blaz, I feel for you. Those Orange receivers with the long aerials at 90 degrees are very good. I have no problems with Spektrum/Orange as long as the aerials are well positioned. For quads, I use Frksy (R9 and 2.4) as Spektrum is rubbish with the carbon frames. At my old flying club we had a 'black hole' area where a 2.4 signal was sometimes lost, regardless of manufacturer of TX/RX. It appeared it was something military possibly causing it but the issue was never resolved. I look forward to the range test video.

    It was such a nice plane and a great start of the video.
    At least we know that these things can happen and every now and then the crash will happen and there are so many causes for it to happen.
    I hope at least that Saito FA56 survived the crash, that same little engine I have waiting for too long to reassemble in a balsa Mustang.
    For the brown-out... it’s so strange it happens more and more lately. But with so much signals in the air, 4g, 5g our mobile hotspots on 2.4ghz and what’s more these older protocols might have problems that didn’t occur previously.
    It’s interesting that for instance the new protocol afhds3 of Flysky is designed especially with new kinds of anti interference protections.
    I’m so curious what will be the result of your transmitter test at the field!

    Any light you can shed on the mystery would be very useful.I have had a few failures with orange park fly receivers,but usually nothing more than a momentary loss of control at extreme range.It might be something to do with the stubby antenna of the D.X.8,particularly if you inadvertantly point the tip of the antenna at the model.Obviously the motor cut when signal loss occurred,it would not be easy to recover even if the signal was recovered.Believe me,Ultimates glide like loaded bricks!

  • @pfiltz
    @pfiltz 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    There is a dead spot out there, or your getting some interference from something else. Was that the same receiver from that other plane that went down? I would also move that antenna on your transmitter more to an upright position. Of course, if there is some big RF interference out there, it won't matter.
