Workbench cleared off and parts list are starting to be accumulated.. although it's a ARF, the whole project will end up being somewhat expensive but beautiful once done. _________________________ Walt,

Hey be careful out there, if they haven't been used in a while your flight batteries could go south on you unexpectedly. Make sure you cycle them and replace if they don't charge properly otherwise it could be real tragic if they fail on you.

Walt Member Registered: 10/13/99 Posts: 860 Loc: Fla	Absolutely, that was one of the first things I considered. The one Lipo and transmitter battery both checked out healthy. Kind of interesting I picked up a simulator by Phoenix for getting up to speed R/C a little more quickly. Works great,looks great too. I like it more than the Realflight simulator. Sending off my saito 90 to get properly tuned up then putting it in my four star 60...the next step otw to my giant corsair. Lol. _________________________ Walt,

Code: // CMS Script File // // Game Title: RealFlight // Written By: Ken King // Date: 8/26/2012 // script CMS.B1 = [js1.a2 < 70]; // FighterStick Forward = Elevator Up CMS.B2 = [js1.a2 > 180]; // FighterStick Aft = Elevator Down CMS.B3 = [js1.a1 < 70]; // FighterStick Left = Aileron Left CMS.B4 = [js1.a1 > 180]; // FighterStick Right = Aileron Right CMS.B5 = [js3.a3 < 100]; // Left Rudder CMS.B6 = [js3.a3 > 140]; // Right Rudder endScript For my throttle I used: DX Mode Off Position Control Parameters Position Keys: 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Works well! _________________________ Originally Posted By: Abraham Lincoln America will never be destroyed from the outside.
