Bae-146 Help

CESARNOGUEIRA · Dec 04, 2001, 09:08 AM

I have a BAE 146.
Was my 1rst e-plane.
I didn't fly it cause my club will fix our field.
I'm flying the delicious Partenavia.

When i build the Bae 146 , the aielrons wiring were normal ones, not twisted.
My doubt : once in the Partenavia, Kavan askrd to use exclusively twisted wiring to the ailerons servos, will I have glitching problens with my BAE?

Oh dude... Ceasar, you have got to be kidding me. You used STRAIGHT leads in your servo extentions?

Oh man, this is baaaaaad... hmmm, let's see.

Oh wait, I know what to do!

Get a really BIG kitchen knife, you know, the kind to cut big loaves of bread.

No, on second thought, get a spoon.

Now, on the top of the completed wing (this is important, it is the surface you always see up close), make a really DEEP gouge into where you think the extention channel is with the spoon, and grab ahold of the lead when you see it. PULL with all your might!!! He'll be really krafty and try to get away - so when you see those black, red, skinny n' straight wires have no mercy, okay Ceasar? Those straight bastards, lying in wait, to take your -146 down...

Well, a little creative joking never hurt anything, eh?

In all reality Ceasar, I used straight leads too in several spots, and twisted leads in others - no ill effects on hundreds of flights. I think in the instruction booklet it doesn't say to use twisted leads, and the pictures show straight extentions. I'm confident you are gonna be fine with what you have.

Besides, what are you gonna do, use MY method to swap them out if you really think it needs it?

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie...

Not nice to fool with us confused e-fliers.

Funny as hell, but not nice....

For God sake, my heart almost stopped.
But i understood the jopke

Anyway, if after the range tests those micro servos doens,t stay quiets, I'll use your method , Eddie.
Thanks! LOL !!!

Eddie P · Dec 05, 2001, 11:52 AM

Ceasar, I just realized my method may be a little sloppier than others. Instead of the spoon, use a butterknife!

Larry- Yeah, I know it sounds horrible, but Cesar knows by now I can only mean well...

Fred Ramon · Dec 05, 2001, 12:00 PM

If your servos go on shaking, one good thing is to use ferrite beads close to the Rx. You just pass your wires a few times (4 / 5) around them. It should solve it.

Twisted or not does not matter that much, latest glider is 2m50 wingspan, 4 servos in the wings and no problem at all and they are straight or at least they try.

Cheers,

Fred

James Frolik · Dec 05, 2001, 05:26 PM

Jesus, Ed! I almost had a heart attack reading your first reply. It sounded pretty real until you finally made a disclaimer. And, it just didn't see like you to say things like that.

Oh, and I twisted all my extension leads in both my BAe-146 and Dash 7. Later I eventually put ferrite chokes near the servo plugs too. But as of yet, I've never heard of anybody losing a model because of nottwisting the extensions.

Aaaaw c'mon guys.. now I'm feeling guilty

EDDIE :
Once more, help me , please, with my BAE, ok?

I saw many pics of your BAE, and I noticed the leading edges are covered with a chromium tape.
I'm thinking doing the same in mine, using Con-tact cromium tape, self adeshive.
My doubt:
Wont this work as an antenna, cause the probable metal composition of the tape (actually a plastic self adeshive), and cause glitches?
Please, help, ok?
THANKS A LOT, FRIEND!

Eddie P · Jan 05, 2002, 07:51 PM

Cesar-

The metallic covering causes NO radio interference issues at all. If you look at the picures you will also see the entire underside of the fuse is done up in the bare metal finish too. If anything should cause antenna shadowing, it would be that. But it doesn't. I've even had entire models (50's era fighters) coated in chrome and have never had interference issues.

You should be good to go.
