IT Collaboration, RC Models and other stuff. HobbyKing Bonsai Review – Low stress fun on a budget. Low stress fun on a budget – just leave it in the car. My model flying has gone from a weekly event to an almost daily event thanks to the Hobby King Bonsai. It just stays in my car and is a great little model to just chuck up on spaces like the cricket pitch next to my house spaces where it would be just impossible or dangerous to fly any of my other models. So what’s so good about the Bonsai? At only 24 a...

IT Collaboration, RC Models and other stuff. Taranis Smart Trainer Mode using Sticky Switches in OpenTX2.x. Note : this scheme has the instructor using the buddy box. A better Tx with a better Balance Bar. My son is still struggling to get good control of his plane and I reckon it is partly to do with his old buddy box which has poor sticks and no balance bar. Refer to this article. About the basics of Taranis and buddy box / trainer mode. OpenTX 2.x and TR1 – 16. Smart Trainer Switch ( sort of ). I init...

Why won’t my Taranis bind and the saga of EU Firmware ETSI EN 300 328 V1.8.1 | Sean Cull

IT Collaboration, RC Models and other stuff. Why won’t my Taranis bind and the saga of EU Firmware ETSI EN 300 328 V1.8.1. The EU has introduced an improved standard covering R/C transmitters called ETSI EN 300 328 V1.8.1. This came into effect on the 1/1/2015 although there was quite a lot of warning in advance. But here is the rub. A Transmitter working in D16 mode ( the mode required for telemetry ) can only work with receivers that are using the same firmware. Note that it is not clear at this time i...

IT Collaboration, RC Models and other stuff. Aileron Differential / Adverse Yaw and a touch too much cleverness – Hard Lesson Learned and. I read an excellent article in the BMFA journal ( issue 121 , unfortunately not on-line ) about Aileron Differential / Adverse Yaw. Last week when I set up my new Hobbyking Phoenix 2000. In my Taranis setups. As I circled around for landing I accidently knocked the switch into this basic mode. I wasn’t too worried as it was a simple landing and I didn’...What had happ...

IT Collaboration, RC Models and other stuff. Category Archives: RC Models. Sloping in Rostrevor / Ballynagelty Mourne Mountains – wind published S – SW actual SE. Just a quick post for the record. I had a good session sloping off the hill above Rostrevor. I initially hoped to slope off by CloughMor. Stone but although the wind was blowing at 25 – 30 knots it was quite sheltered there. I set off further up the hill to a spot just below the summit shown with the green arrow below. Would i fly there again?

Taranis / OpenTx 2.x – the difference between raw stick values and Inputs for rates | Sean Cull

IT Collaboration, RC Models and other stuff. Taranis / OpenTx 2.x – the difference between raw stick values and Inputs for rates. A quick note on something I have just realised. When you look at the mixes screen in OpenTX 2.0 there are now options in the mixes to use Ail or [I4] Ail ( the number may vary ). These are VERY different. I4]Ail is the aileron stick value after the rate lines have been applied. There is a useful forum post here. This entry was posted in RC Models. And tagged RC Models. Guest P...

IT Collaboration, RC Models and other stuff. Finding a lost model with Taranis ( or other ) Telemetry. Some time ago Bruce Simpson of RC model Reviews. Mentioned using the Taranis Telemetry to find a lost model. I have used it several times lately so thought I would pass on this tip. The idea is that the lowest signal is when your antenna is pointed directly at the model – which is why you fly with the antenna at 90 degrees ( did you know that? The screen below shows the default RX RSSI. 4 antenna built ...
