[TheRcTalents]

I have the same problem this plane sucks

[TheRcTalents]

Im

[DUDE6FT]

hint if any one can try but the push rod on top works better :D

[52outbound]

did you fix it if so can you tell me where you found the parts and how you fixed the roll action on the elevator

[johneyrico]

wat if you turnd the servo arround

[tallguysd]

Ok first off the factory made a mistake and put the servo in backwards! five minutes a little hot glue and your done. I'm not defending BH but this stuff goes on all the time! from all vendors that sale RTF kits. Im shocked if you read the RCG no one told you just to turn the servo around.this whole video should have never happened!

[cbjuss]

What a public shame . I wonder how can a modelbuilder to be so helpless - use your brains man !

[jlabate11]

lol you have it backwards put the left one one hole 3 and the right one on the top hole

[BRAAAPKID13]

Huch much are you asking for it with shipping? I may be interested...

[nightrockxxx]

@BRAAAPKID13 Still have it...never used it...I got the spare parts (not from Bananahobby) but I'll let it go for $275.00 plus shipping if anyone is interested.

[BRAAAPKID13]

@nightrockxxx Interested but not at that price. Is it a 4ch? 2.4GHz or FM? Flaps or not? With float kit and landing gears? Here is one out the door with shipping brand new in a 6 channel 2.4GHz version for $260. If you are interested in selling it for $200 with shipping let me know. Thanks

[SuperPianowizard]

@nightrockxxx $250?

[MclF01]

thaks for the info im going to get the 2010 version they say that its fix all the issues

[flyinhighrogerKBTR1]

Just buy some more and shut up. Eh?

[billskinzfifth]

Can you turn the servo around in the plane... so the arm is to the rear?... seems like that would give you the xtra half inch or so to work with.

[grumpypant]

Go get an all balsa/plywood-built R/C airplane where the servos are set up onto their own servo tray and pushrod guides...

Just look how far those pushrods are angled without any guides! That airplane can be very UNSTABLED!!!

[grumpypant]

Lets face it, Tom: a typical foam R/C airplane promises you little to go by, especially when the servos are mounted into the foam moldings...

One crash can rip the servos from the foam and CA them sometimes doesn't cut it!...

[nightrockxxx]

Bananahobby still hasn't made good on their promise. They said that new servo's were coming my ....... three months later, no servo's. I've been calling them and all I get is "we don't have spare parts available, and we are discontinuing this plane!! Wait, on the site they say "Spare parts available!!" Still can't fly the plane!! Anyone want to buy it??

[hahahahahahaha193]

@nightrockxxx how much?

[pilot2w]

i have problem with my plane pus roads i ned longer 10 mm

[jackmanpilot]

pull the arm off of the servo then make it so the arm on the servo where the rods attach is pointed slightly backward. hope this helps

[yesmann2345]

i just finished building mine, i found that the push rods for the elevator were different, but you can make them work, just re position the servo-T

[dotey10]

have you flown it yet? im considering getting it and i was wondering what you thought.

[rcplaneguy1]

hmmm... trim?

[bananahobby]

any foam with it. You can also use a sharp xacto blade and run it on the perimeter of the servo case to loosen it some. Once the servo is loose, simply turn it around and glue it back in. I know this should not be your responsibility as you purchased a prefabbed RTF aircraft. We at Banana Hobby did not know about this and we can only offer a fix solution. Please follow what we have suggested and once again, we apologize. ~ Pete

[bananahobby]

I have reviewed your video and first, I want to apologize for the manufacture Edo Models error. the Elevator servo in your 185 is glued on in the wrong position. I just checked with my 185 I used for the video. What you would need to do is to flip that servo around and cement it back in. To pull the glued servo out is really simple. They are only rubber cemented in place. Grab it with a pair of needle nose pliers and wiggle slowly while pulling it away from the foam. It should not take

[HappyKmore]

Turn the servo around. SIMPLE fix. Then adjust by turning the threaded ends until they're level.

[nightrockxxx]

Not a simple fix...The servo is glued in so you'd have to dig it out of the styroform with chances of damaging it as others have emailed about..on the servo arm there's 5 holes and I've tried ever hole with different variations of adjustments with no luck. Thanks for the response anyway my friend.
