Been using tape measure all this time. And some simple math. Good invention!
Awesome video, informative and simple. Keep them coming please. Thanks 😊
Great tool. I've been waiting for these to come back in stock for some time now.
Back in stock !
@@andystoybox1723 Yep. I ordered it this morning!
@@P51Dfan nice !
Excellent, good instructor. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching
Always very nice produced, thanks for that video James and Alex 🤙🏻
Out of stock ?? When will you get more ? Been looking for one of these
I was like what you gonna do with a flying stab.then you showed us.i got the f18 and deflection meter from motion.ty so much
Thanks for the tip.
I still need one, but cannot find this one. Great tip James. Did miss you guys last Friday. 👍🏻
Back in stock !
@@andystoybox1723 brilliant, I better get one quick 👍🏻
@@andystoybox1723 Still out of stock in the EU store 🙁
@@DadsRCHangar awww 😔 I’m sorry I didn’t know you were in Uk 😔
@@andystoybox1723 you teaser you, it’s all good buddy. Very kind to give the heads up any how. Have a great day/night 👍🏻
See you all on the Friday show!
Great Planes Also has the same one. Both work prefectly.
👍😊
Gotta get them in stock
They back !
I just set everything 120% and go full send. Probably why I keep ordering parts for the Spitfire...I also found out it can do pop tops and snap rolls ha.
✈️
Mine came sort of flimsy, can't really get it to stay put, any suggestions?
Motion - Hey here is this product we haven't had in stock in over a month. Me - Maybe I will buy it with my three dollar bill
Back in stock !
Out of stock in Europe too!
I've been flying RC for about 2 years and have never bothered to set rates on any of my planes, mostly because I don't understand the reason behind it. Does flying full throws cause damage to the servos, or is there something else I'm missing? I think just being easy on the sticks gives me a more scale feel to flying. I'm willing to learn if anyone is willing to set me straight on this issue.
Its a hard question to answer in a TH-cam comment, but basically many RC aircraft or different types use the same servos, so for instance, if you had a B-24 bomber and a Sport Jet, why would you want the bomber to have as much throw as a the sport jet? Setting some rates just makes things easier. You don't have worry about being easy on the sticks if you have a few different options like a low, medium and high rate setting. When you are in low, you know you won't be able to make any sharp movements accidentally because we are all human and make mistakes from time to time
@@MotionRC Thank you for that. I'll get the manual out on my transmitter and learn how to set rates and give it a try. I guess I've been lucky so far. In the 2 years I've been flying, I've only had 1 bad crash involving a tree. (knock on wood).
@@srcaviationhanger6445 I hear you and really it all comes down to personal preference. They are a good starting point and are in no means necessary. Rate are like Expo, everyone likes different settings and everyone is right if they are comfortable flying that way. But for instance, on my taildragger warbirds, I prefer high and low elevator rates as I want max elevator throws when I taxi and land to keep the tail down, but low while flying as I don't even want the option of having to much pitch or she won't look scale in the air
@@MotionRC Right on, I get it now. I figured I'd try it out and see the differences it makes. My biggest concern was the possibility of damage to the electronics. I've never seen a video of someone not using rates. I've often thought about it but never bothered to ask.
Think of rates like the stick or yoke of an aircraft… a slower plane uses more stick movement for the lack of air moving over the wings, but if you watch a fighter pilot they barely move the stick because they are going so fast, almost like when driving on the highway and you barely have to move the wheel to switch lanes, lower rates makes the plane less twitchy at speed, but at slower speeds makes (some planes) sluggish and slow to respond, conversely high rates makes the plane more twitchy at speed, but allows for more correction and response during slow flight. Essentially instead of having to try and make microscopic corrections with the stick at high speed, you change the rates so the same movement just equals less deflection
Have been wanting one of this style meters for the longest. Just went to order. OUT OF STOCK. 🤬
I did the same 😡
Back in stock !
Sweet, now just get them in stock...
Back in stock !
