I may have to jump on the Albatross as my first step into DF. Sweet!

Question for the guys who have painted their Trojan. Ive heard that the yellow krylon works great, but im looking for black and white. I believe i heard someone say that some of the fusion colors will damage the foam, is that true? What do you guys use for b & w spray paint?

ian_ryeng · May 21, 2008, 12:59 PM

I have not tested it yet but i know that krylon has the h2o series of spray paints that are foam safe...

Might be worth looking into. I don't know how they compare the the fusion series though.

(i suggest it because both black and white are available, you can read more about it here )

I am about 99% positive that you do not have to use water based spray paint on this type of foam. FYI

Thanks for the great summary, darenm!

Just picked up a PnP T-28 the other day. Put in an AR6100e and set up my DX6i, except; I don't know how to program in down elevator when I turn the ailerons into landing flaps. If someone could let me know how to do this I would greatly appreciate it.

Hoping to maiden my T-28 this weekend. Would try and make the field tonight, but the missus' birthday is tomorrow and I need to do some shopping (especially since I got this for myself 2 days ago

).

I think the consensus is do NOT use the ailerons for flaps. They are too far out on the wing. I am sure I will be corrected if I misunderstood.

I painted the bottom of the wing with Fusion satin black, works great.

OK...I'm going to ask...which thread do we continue to post in? There was a mention in the part 1 that this thread was going to start. But, the first thread is still going. Do I need to monitor two threads now?

I would assume that everything would be carried on to this new thread and start being discussed here and that the old one would start dying off.

Excellent compilation of links Darenm, I'm in on this thread now

Ok guys, i received my Castle Creations Berg ms4l today and i am attempting to install it. I am using the stock transmitter with this BERG receiver and i am having a little issue. Here is how i have everything hooked up.

Ch1 Throttle
Ch2 Ailerons
Ch3 Elevator
Ch4 Rudder

When i turn everything on it all seems fine but i am only getting inputs for throttle and elevator and nothing else. I have tried switching the rudder and aileron plugs with each other and i am still not getting rudder or ailerons movement. I have also tried moving all the plugs around and i noticed that Ch1 and Ch3 work with any control surface plugged into it but ch2 and ch4 don't work no matter what is in it. I have found that Ch1 is for throttle and Ch3 is for elevator though. What could be the problem? Does anyones know how to set up a BERG receiver with the stock transmitter?

I am also using the stock TX crystal with a BERG crystal in the RX, they are both on the same channel but could this be the issue?

Could my receiver be defective?
