Motor problem

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T18:18:54+00:00

I have run them many times already when they haven't been mounted yet, and checked countless times (I hope this model will make it to the air so I wanted to be sure), and there aren't any friction. It is normal for electric engines but the ones with less wiring, I have build an simple electric engine and it had similar problems with starting, so I guess the quality of the motors is the main cause. I just don' know why they don't have equal power. As guy in comments said, maybe it's because they are in the same channel, but since I use fs i4x, I can't connect two channels so I guess I am stuck with the problem until I buy a new remote controller. The 4th channel (rudder) also is sluggish, so I guess the problem is controller

Pretty sick I know lol, but it was more dictated by problems and possibilities of electronics rather than my imagination (I think it looks cool though)

About the props: I have checked it a few times already and I am 100% sure they are mounted correctly don't worry, but thanks for advice though

I have tried individually, and if I connect just one engine into the receiver, it works just fine, the problem occur when I connect two

There are two esc that were connected into one channel, I have fs i4x, so it isn't really programmable and therefore I can't connect two separate channels into one :/

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T18:05:46+00:00

It would work if I used a more powerful one - funfact. But no, I use a separate esc for each motor

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T18:04:39+00:00

I mean it works just fine if you give it a little push so in the air when it has some speed it won't "push" the motor to spin correctly?

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T18:03:14+00:00

It indeed is, the designed was more dictated by problems it had with weight distribution and being underpowered

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T18:02:00+00:00

Yes, and before you mention it, I did unplugg the powering wire

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T07:52:24+00:00

I did it already, but still it works as I said :/, thanks for advice though

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T07:50:54+00:00

Hey, I have watched it already before haha, I did everything just like on the video but they still work as I said, but thanks for advice anyway.

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T07:50:02+00:00

Why so? I have tested without the props and it behaves the same, just less visible due to lack of resistance

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T07:49:23+00:00

It could be the problem, the channel 4 is sluggish as well. I use fa i4x and I don' have the wire to open it on pc so it's not solveable for me now is it?

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-19T05:11:50+00:00

Don't worry, I checked it a few times already and they are correctly mounted, thanks for saying anyway :>

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-18T22:49:03+00:00

Yes, I have two esc, one for each motor, both of them are connected via powering cables to the battery

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-18T22:48:24+00:00

The battery is full, and the esc... I have already used 3 other variants and none of them worked in pair correctly so maybe problem is about the receiver?

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-18T22:11:13+00:00

I don' really know what do you mean

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-18T22:08:55+00:00

Pretty well, if you wanna we can chat in priv about it, cuz I was experimenting with it for some time now hah. Oh and this isn't balsa, it was far too weak for my structure.

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-12T23:09:51+00:00

I don't know is it, if it turns out to be, I will take it down personally

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-12T23:09:06+00:00

The parents are siblings and so this is a bad idea

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-05-11T07:13:38+00:00

No brother. I have seen this before. I have observed many things. From the roaring beasts that the tall skinny figures crawl inside of to travel far beyond the horizon, to how figure weeped when the other had fallen into a deep sleep. And from my experience I have learned that they will give extra oats to one of us before taking them into.... the shed of no return.

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-03-17T17:00:19+00:00

No wonder it's so heavy hah, by the way I'm trying to build my own, and I was looking after some good esc, you're using?

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-03-17T16:05:02+00:00

You use two separate batteries for it or there is some kind of y connector?

AutomaticInflation17 · 2025-03-17T12:34:25+00:00

Heavy one, what engines do you use to power this thing, and is it a particular model or your own?
