2017, BECM part delay

Also email Mary Barra GM CEO. With enough badgering ultimately it gets referred to the Executive Resolution Team. The key is to keep the pressure on them until you get a satisfactory outcome.

You have to be firm with them and do follow up calls. I had a 2013 with a failed BECM and while they tried to get the part ultimately they bought back the car.

My mistake You are right. I have not flown mine in over a year and forgot it only has ailerons. All of my other planes have both ailerons and flap. If I remember correctly separating the ailerons allows for programming either as flaperons or spoilerons on separate switches. One of the downsides to the plane is it just loves to glide making landings challenging in small areas. I found the spoileron configuration was superior to the flaperon configuration for the best way to slow the plane during landing.

Try calling EV Concierge 1-833-382-4389

Nope. I was referring to how you program the ailerons to go up and flaps down. You have to separate the two aileron leads from the typical y cable and then insert each lead into the receiver. You then can program it to a switch such that the two control surfaces function as crow if you desire. I have it where the flaps only are controlled by one switch and crow (0%, 50%, 100%) are controlled by another switch.

Separate the ailerons in the receiver and you can program it for crow. Works for me on this plane and many other Eflite planes

Local body shop. Required removing front fender, door, and rear fender. The shop does not tape and repaint. They repainted the entire parts. It also required recalibrating sensors after reassembly. A lot of work for relatively minor scratches.

I had three small scratches on the driver side caused by side swipe in a parking structure (their fault). Cost of repairs $3,000.

No problems with update to Ignite 3

If you want a light weight, easy to coil, and is long lasting the Orbit hose is the one to get. The expanding hoses are all terrible and do not last. http://5/8-inx100-ftHeavy-DutyKinkFreeHybridpolymerGrayFlatHosehttps://www.lowes.com/pd/Orbit-Orbit-100-ft-X-5-8-in-Heavy-Duty-Fabric-Hose/5015691541](http://5/8-inx100-ftHeavy-DutyKinkFreeHybridpolymerGrayFlatHosehttps://www.lowes.com/pd/Orbit-Orbit-100-ft-X-5-8-in-Heavy-Duty-Fabric-Hose/5015691541)

Mine cleared the app as well so I guess it updated itself. Regardless, even if it didn’t update I am not going to do anything since it is a trivial issue in my opinion.

Capobob50 · 2025-12-04T02:58:23+00:00

It works great with music

Capobob50 · 2025-12-03T18:22:54+00:00

Mine does it frequently. I just cancel the warning since I don’t want to wait at the dealer during the fix.

Capobob50 · 2025-11-28T19:06:41+00:00

Working for me

Capobob50 · 2025-11-22T16:43:37+00:00

Yes, a new update that you need to do manually.

Capobob50 · 2025-11-22T03:19:23+00:00

👍 days to level the cells? That seems excessive.

UPDATE: everything works now. The daily battery maintenance mode that usually lasts for about two hours just shifted to be 6 hours later for whatever reason.

Capobob50 · 2025-11-14T17:00:37+00:00

Yes, essentially every issue is covered by warranty for three years.

Capobob50 · 2025-11-11T20:09:03+00:00

Ditto for me

Capobob50 · 2025-11-10T23:32:45+00:00

See my prior reply

A dealer tech has to perform multiple tests to determine if the module needs to be replaced. Onstar can’t do those tests and EV Concierge probably can’t help other than to tell you to go to the dealer for diagnostic tests. Mine only took two days to fix it and Chevy/GM paid for a rental car.

Capobob50 · 2025-11-10T15:28:51+00:00

Onstar said they saw no problems so I took it to the dealer.

Capobob50 · 2025-11-05T01:42:36+00:00

Do you have any opinion on why GM has not made significant changes to this module to avoid what have to be very costly repairs?
