Hey guys.. I got an email from Hobbypartz today saying they have 3.7v sky lipos.. All different sizes 120-160-250 etc... Really good prices @ $3-4 each. And free shipping with $25 order... No pics of them yet but they should be the right shape and sizes.

Hi GJOsik,

Yes pitch and turn are on the right stick with the transmitter switched to mode 2.
Switched to mode 1, the throttle is on the right stick, but since it's got a centering spring that's not very helpful unless you remove the spring.

Good that you said "turn" instead of rudder. From what I read, the rudder control on the DX6i is on the left with the throttle. But Champ uses the Aileron channel for rudder control (why?) so it works out as you said.

I have my dx6i mixed so that Champs rudder works on both left and right sticks. This makes it easier when you fly a real 4 channel / aileron plane

Has anyone put lights on the Champ yet?

I had 5mm lights on mine... They were to big and heavy.

I think bradcopter has a pretty nice light setup on his.
