    Should be home all day so any time after 10:00 should be fine.

    Neil, inav configuration is the program you need but you have to load firmware into the fc before you can configure it.

    Im not far away from Ron so if you want to drop up sometime I’ll show you how to set it up as I have all the needed files on my pc

    Thanks Gerald, I stand corrected.

    I have actually seen that option in iNav 7 but not used it so apparently it didn’t stay stored in my grey matter.

    G’day Neil, you can install them right way up, upside down, on either side BUT the arrow on the FC must ALWAYS face in the direction the plane flies.

    Most modern FC’s must face forward, unlike the old FY 41AP’s that could be reprogrammed for installing in reverse.

    Just as long as it doesn’t melt the firewall

    I fitted a 2200kv motor and 40A esc so hopefully it’s got enough grunt to overcome the weight

    Finally finished the 3D printed Savage Bobber, all electronics installed & the radio is programmed ready for her maiden flight (once the damn weather improves).

    Thanks Mr Kermit, it may never fly (being too heavy) but it’s kept me amused.

    I’m just about finished so if you need a hand sorting out some of your planes this may be the right time. don’t think the weather is improving any time soon !!.

    I’m expecting a call from the old Sheep Shagger as soon as his bits turn up, to sort out his FPV plane.

    Looks like a fine spot for flying (or RC dune buggies) but a bit hard for sailing, also the sand tends to wear the paint off the keels !!

    Glad you are enjoying yourself GG.

    I can still remember (just) when I used to be that keen, rain, hail or shine we would be down there sailing regardless.

    At least we were smart enough to sail from inside our cars long before the rain got that heavy.

    Anyway, nice to see someone is keeping up the tradition of a Saturday Sail @ the canal, AND producing a video to prove it happened.

    Well done Mr Kermit.

    Posting Videos.

    Would everyone please note (including Mr Kermit), you can’t post videos in the Calendar. They get deleted by the system, in fact ALL calendar entries get deleted after 30 days have passed, to cut down on storage requirements.

    Great quality video Gerald. Digital is definitely far superior, just a shame about the content.  You need to get up & out a bit to find interesting content for that great camera.

    Apart from the OSD its hard to pick any video degradation between the plane recording & the controller on the ground.

    in reply to: Predators 3D printed Mini Cub #17385

    Given that it’s over a year since I started to repair the Mini Cub (June 2023 till August 2024) I thought it about time to finish it (you know I can’t rush these things).

    The first order of the day was to try & set up LW-PLA profiles for the recently acquired Bambu Lab X1C as I intend to sell the Artillery Sidewinder printer that the original was printed on.

    Anyway, after a couple of failed attempts I got everything working & printed a new main wing, to replace the original broken one.

    No real dramas with that, so onto the painting

    Even got round to printing & installing the correct Logo (before I prang this one).

    Hopefully ready to take to the skies again tomorrow, 14 months (almost to the day) from when it last flew (and died).

    Just something to keep me amused when not flying !!

    Well done with the video again this week Mr Kermit.

    Nice to see there were no PC gremlins attacking you this week.
