  • pile o shit

  • Thank you so much for this comment, this week I bought one of this planes that has the exact same problems as the one in the video.

    And both are easily fixed with your hint.

    The problem is always the same, the over-travel of the servos makes the ailerons block and the elevator "hula hooping" :)

    To fix-it, just access under the servos (by removing the 4 screws and bend each servo's black proximity sensor a little bit towards the servo axle.

    Enjoy flying! :)

  • I bought this plane, worked fine util some duech bag shot it down with his rifle, mistaking it for a bird!

  • That fault is easy to fix.

    There is a proximty sensor under the servo, you just need to bend it a litlle till it works fine.

  • The result is a much faster, more powerful plane that can fly inverted and climb much better. I also put some packing tape on the elevator to give it a little more authority. Enjoy

  • Well are you going to let us know how your replacement is working. I have owned two, the first one the aileron servo quit in the first flight. The second is flying strong with no faults except the same aileron locking problem. Wich is easily overcome with a little foam safe CA. (glue) How ever i recommend taking the landing gear off aswell as setting your battery all the way back then trimming it out again with the battery all the way back.

  • mine does so too

  • Crazy Servo :D

  • enyone know how to change the channel setting for the PERFEX KT-20?? so that i kan gett the tail with hight, turn one one side, and balance, Throttle one the oder? The controls on this plane is fucked up!§
