    I really don’t think holding off registering is going to do any good.  The AMA sold everyone out.  You might as well register and be done with it.  Now you can really see the value of the AMA.  They collect your money and they never pay out on any claim.  hmmm sure seems like a hobby shake down at its best.  La familia must be jealous of the organization that they have made.

    This sounds like it was a lot of fun.  Must do more often!

    Well, it came and went, lol.

    It was a good plane; I’ll probably get another if that one doesn’t fall down from the tree.

    One warning about the AR 636:  It is ONLY programmable via computer.  There is no way to program it with a transmitter.  And you are required to buy a $15 cable in order to program it.  I like my AR635 better.  It is more confusing then it needs to be to adjust the gains, but it isn’t impossible without giving e-flight more $ for a cable.

    I’m assuming that if it worked for Whitt then the servos must be installed correctly already. I don’t know where in this thread I got the idea they were not opposed..

    Thanks for the link, very helpful.

     

    Like I said, reversing the servo direction changes Both servos, and I only need to reverse one.

    I’ll be stopping by Ronnie’s for a “Y” harness this afternoon.

    Ah there you go. Nice J. It says you can reverse it by a dip switch or something.

    Whitt you might want to do this if the orx allows for independent ail control. That way if the left wing dips it might only use the left servo bank to correct. Again I’m speaking out of my $%% b/c I don’t own one however I do know Eagletree’s guardian works this way. 2 cents, cha-ching

    Ok, I’ll pick up a Y-harness.  Thanks

    Reversing direction in the tx or rx just causes both of them to go down when I push right instead of going up when I push right.  And the servo only fits in one direction, so you can’t just flip it.

    I guess I need to do some research on what’s required to be able to turn off the gyro’s through the aux channel.

    Exactly that’s why it can’t be done in the tx. It’s not on a separate channel when it receives tx commands. Or so I would think. The only solution I would think to be to reverse the servo. Since it is not digital this would have to be done manually.

    I’ve never used the orx but it would seem to me they would have to be on separate channels for a single surface to react to stabilization. If not you could simple flip the servo over.

    I’m having an issue setting mine up.  I’m using an ORX V3 receiver with stabilization.  When I have everything hooked up my ailerons are running in unison, like another elevator.  The ORX has L and R aileron outputs.  Am I required to run a “Y” off just one output or is there some way for me to reverse one of the aileron channels without reversing the other?

    I can’t wait to get her in the sky!
