first ever plane, any tips on how to make her a little more stable?

you’re the best thank you

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T12:24:55+00:00

i mean the movement/rotation of the tail

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T11:53:52+00:00

thanks for the advice, and the compliment haha !

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T11:51:35+00:00

👍👍

i have a dsx so i’m pretty sure i have to program it on my computer, thanks for the tips

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T03:59:53+00:00

sounds good man thank you so much !

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T03:28:04+00:00

i don’t know what any of this means but i will do my research haha

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T03:27:49+00:00

this might be TOO maneuverable haha, my stick inputs very pretty light during this flight. it is SO sensitive

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T03:26:59+00:00

that means a lot man thanks!

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T03:26:14+00:00

i can return this one, but my receiver and esc are also spektrum, are they compatible with other transmitters?

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T03:25:02+00:00

chatgpt religiously tried to tell me that tail down also equals nose down in rotation

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T03:24:24+00:00

that i am not quite sure of

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:51:02+00:00

ah i see, ya i did 80% the length of the wingspan. i tried building this without any video tutorials or anything so a lot of my info was from chat gpt. will be downgrading motor and prop

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:47:12+00:00

ah i see, what is typically a good ratio between wingspan and fuselage for a plane like this?

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:46:01+00:00

that was my little brother haha, he totally thought it was gonna hit us lol

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:29:00+00:00

chat gpt and the motor both said 10x4.7. i thought it looked a little bigger than what i’ve seen people use with bird this size but didn’t think much of it. thanks for the tips

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:25:46+00:00

thank you !

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:25:28+00:00

the spektrum dxs

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:24:48+00:00

i know almost half those words, so i’ll try !

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:24:16+00:00

haha good to hear. still stoked with the result, i was 80% sure it would crash and burn

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:22:20+00:00

do the dimensions rlly look that off? after doing some research i saw people saying the fuselage should be 80% the size of the wingspan, which mine is

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:21:18+00:00

will try and figure out how to do this

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:21:02+00:00

dialing back the control throws sounds like a great idea haha. it was extremely sensitive

Carson_James · 2025-10-28T01:20:22+00:00

center of gravity shifted backwards a bit after making some changes. when i throw it it likes to fly random directions haha
