To put on a battery with mini-jst's? Like the TP250's? Yeah... that's a hassle. But on the charger side you'll want to buy that parallel charging cable anyway. It's a good thing. You can fly all day if you want if you use packs capable of 5C charging.

For what it's worth, Horizon Hobby has always treated me right, replaced parts that I broke through my own damn stupid fault, even though they didn't need to. Their customer service was amazing, and from what I understand, they have a reputation in the industry for excellent customer service and support.

Glad you got a replacement! From what I understand, it's a fun little bird...

Hey guys.....at an indoor session and my beast has an aileron issue. Push stick left and they go down, push right they go up! Any ideas??

Reverse your left aileron servo

How would I do that?

If you are not in a hurry send it back. Thanks what I did and Horizon sent me a new one.

Thanks so much for your replies both jrjr and Bob. Much appreciated. Is it a common fault?

That answer depends on your transmitter. It either has a real switch on it somewhere to reverse the direction of the servo or it is done in programming. Refer to your transmitter manual.

I have a DX8. I will check the manual. The weird thing is, the ailerons became additional elevators for no apparent reason.

Select a "fresh" model memory, bind the Beast to it, and check the controls.

Might be worth just checking that you dont have elevons mix on by mistake...

Doesn't the Beast use a "Y" adapter? Can't do anything about that from the transmitter.

Erkq,

The aileron servos plug in separately. Switching from single-channel, dual-servo ailerons to dual-channel ailerons is done on the brick, via stick-position programming.

Oh... cool... I'm not keeping up. I thought the guys playing with flaperons had to open up and re-plug. Thanks.

BTW, I know flaperons don't work with AS3X.

Guys I have a brand new in the package as3x beast board. $55 shipped if anyone is interested. Part number eflu4864
