Hi. How do you setup the CG ? I just crash twice vecause on first I put the battery on the middle of the airplane and have a tail heavy crash on the take off (15 cm), was terrible. Them after that I put the battery on the other place more near the pilot are and put some wiegth on the cone front and the plane was too heavy front its up on the end of the airway but loss the velocity and I tryed to climb but then stall and crash (horrible) still have to fix the fuselage front and the rigth wing.
@cool5tuff You have to take out the black plastic strip on the bottom of the plane and take out the aileron wires. The ailerons stock are in a y-harness. Take one of the aileron plug out and plug into another channel like flap. Then mix on the transmitter
would this be a good beginner edf jet? ive flown the hobbyzone champ and the hawk sky, and my next plane will be the Trojan T-28. Would this be a good plane after those 3?
How did you set up the ailerons to go into 'Flap Mode' like that? Also how fast is it? I've got a parkzone P-51D BNF which I've been shredding but I'm looking at getting the DiamondBacks version of this which I'm hoping will be a little faster and more powerful?
@Matt5195 You need two servos, one per aileron. Then, usually, at least this is the way it is for my Hitec Spectra, you connect one of the ailerons into channel 2, and one into channel 6. (No Y-Harness needed here) Then you should be able to set up flaperons in the radio.
@Matt5195 in the dx6i their is in the setup list a part called wing tail mix highlight that and select dualailerons then set it to act then go to the flaps and enable that. hope this didnt help:)
Great. I think you would be surprised at how little rudders would do for say stall turns, as they have absolutely NO airflow from the powerplant over them.
They might help though, and if you already have some 7.5 gram servos, maybe hs55's then it's probably worth it. Then you can have airbrakes: both rudders pointing in likt the real thing, as well as flapperons!

don't use flaps
spoilerons are the way to go
the control surface is too far back from the cg and it noses down

@rctestflight The F-18 is excellent for beginners trying to get into EDF jets. It has great performance and very forgiving flight characteristics.
