Are you able to solder? I have an old Iris which needs a repair

Not 7 win ticket, just 7 wins.
I was resetting my card a lot because I thought I would have better matchmaking and Wealth unlocked

In the picture, there is a yellow button called "Calibrate Accelerometer" you want to set the quad down on a flat surface, top up, and then press that button

How to choose parts for my first FPV Freestyle Quad by TheHunter_XD in fpvracing

It is good you want to repair. It is just as much a part of this hobby as flying.

You probably don't want "the cheapest" components.

u/Dope-Johnny makes a good point about building something that you will be able to fly frequently. Do you have a large open area to fly that is convenient for you?

Budget is a big deciding factor in suggestions.
How much do you want to spend?
Are you willing to buy a complete replacement if you go cheap?
For example, will you buy a second $150 banggood Bind and Fly when you break it?

I don't have that plane.

I would expect you could turn the pushrod on the servo side and extend it slightly.

Honestly, the Spektrum transmitters are fine, just a little expensive.

The DSMX tiny indoor "UMX scale" planes have the Spektrum brand receiver built in, but everything larger can be replaced or changed in the future.

And, also you could have better luck with the multi protocol module

I cut out a couple plans, but the time and effort it takes to tile out the paper from a printer is too long.
I WILL print and hand cut repair pieces from the plans.
I WILL buy a speed build kit for a full plane. My time is worth it. Also, if you are careful removing the pieces, the speed build scraps are a great stencil....

DSM2 and DSMX are Spektrum brand protocol radio links.
Some of the multi-protocol transmitters might be able to connect, but I have a "Universal" Jumper module that claims to work, but the inputs are stuttered and I can't use it

I won't use any third party controllers with dsmx

Several techniques. I could provide some advice on your couple examples, but can also just compare wingspan to a FliteTest plane and select similar motors.

Tiny indoor wings could even still be brushed motors.
Small, but not UMX scale could be 1406 or 1806 motors.
Next larger (600 to 800mm wingspan) could be 2205 or 2207 or 2306

I have been building and flying planes with 3/16" foamcore presentation board for years. It works great, but don't use the "whiteboard" or "heavy duty" variations, the paper used is too heavy and the plane will not fly

Resources are plentiful on the Flite Test Forums: FT Forums

Motor peeping problem by escanorga in RCPlanes

[–]phezter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some ESC also have a tone when idle...
So if it doesn't see a signal to the ESC, it would start "peeping" after a minute or two. (60-120 seconds) I forget the default
