Great video👍 Should the VTX be installed or relocated in a way where it doesn't block the air flow of the vertical stabilizer? It looks dangerously draggy for that beautiful plane.

@alishanmao 4 жыл бұрын

LOL thats just me doing that. There is a proper place in the wings for VTX. but I am just too lazy to run a new long cable and install my VTX in the wing. also my VTX is big and does not fix in that area under the wing for VTX and I have to cut the foam. Instead of cutting foam off under the wing that can be more dangerous, I go with this method. I do not have any issues of air flow or flight performance doing this. just a bit more drag. Later i may try to install a VTX inside the wing. found a 600mW small sized Vtx that can fit there easily. will see how that go

Hello! your videos are impressive, please I need to know how you adjust the trims of the flying wing so that it flies perfectly stabilized. I use the ground station because I don't have the VRX yet, please! I need this information, I understand that all controllers are similar, but I can't get it right. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!!

@alishanmao 2 жыл бұрын

Fly it without any flight control system. trim it using radio during flight and when its flying leveled hands free, land and remember the trims values. adjust those surfaces needing trims using physically adjusting connecting rods. zero trims and then fly again. repeat until you have a nice level flying hands free flying wing. adjust with subtrims if still have to add minor trims. now land and install flight controller. you will have a very stable flying machine

@alishanmao 4 жыл бұрын

yes in Alt hold mode or RTH mode, set your throttle, and once you move the plane more than 2m/s speed, motor will start automatically and you can throw it in the air. it will climb to a safe altitude automatically. be very careful though in that mode. do not move the plane abruptly because motor can start and injure you

It starts when you start the SN Navi for the first time

@johnbednarz1424 Жыл бұрын

@alishanmao Thanks, I've had it for awhile on wing, I upgraded firmware up to last one, 5.2 I got from lefeirc. It saved all my setting during upgrade, but lost the sub mode switch. It doesn't go into calibration mode on start up because I've had it on my transmitter before, figure there has to be a way to access it manually.

Does the SN Navi need receiver and everything hook up in order to run it on the gcs in the computer? Reason I ask is I connected it to my computer, driver shows up in gcs, so I connect on the right com port, plugged battery in just so I can see what firmware is on it, but nothing. I don't have my receiver yet, waiting for it and I didn't connect any thing else except battery and esc.

Does't need that if you just want to see GCS and or do settings in GCS.

well I just connect the USB Cable, to SNN, then to computer, Run GCS, connect battery and it shows all parameters just fine and i can tweak and tune those. I do not have to connect Rx, Vtx, cam, or GPS or any sensor. maybe its your computer issue. Try another computer and see how it goes.

connect to GCS software and in OSD menu you can see option English. do it, save it and your OSD should be back to English. Normally you can do the same from OSD with in, but as everything is in chinese will be difficult for you to find out where is the language. trial and error, going into options and checking would do the job but CGS is easier path.
