[spinosaurus242]

Hello! Could you tell me what is the longest distance of the 2.4 GHz and a 35 MHz receiver from the transmitter. Thank you!

[MikeysRC]

@spinosaurus242 It depends on several things. The transmitter power the brand of receiver and the kind of antenna on the receiver.

[BrddyTheNinja]

i am just getting started and I was wondering What motor, servos, battery, receiver, transmiter, and size of prop u used

[MikeysRC]

@BrddyTheNinja click on "show more" under the video and it will show you all that info. You can also join my forum and and ask questions like this on there too =).

[brinleytheref]

can you tell me what thickness foamboard you're using on the spitfire? I've built one from 6mm depron but it doesn't seem rigid enough.

[MikeysRC]

it's about 5.5mm foam board. or close to 3/16th of an inch. Yeah I don't use depron....too brittle and also too expensive to make stiff. Foam board = stiffer, little heavier but doesn't really matter.

[spinosaurus242]

@MikeysRC Well let's say it's DX6i (just like your's in the video).

[TheHiddenmagician]

also do u use 6mm foam because i use dollar tree foam which is 3mm and ill leave the paper on for reinforcement

[TheHiddenmagician]

plzz help would this plane work on a 500g+ thrust 37gram motor with 9*5 prop and 7.4V 1300mah lipo bat? thanks

Hi Mickey i am a beginner at rc airplanes, and need help with pluging in the alerons in to the receiver. When i plug it them in i cant get one to go up and one to go down to turn. Do i need to use a y connector plz tell me i can wait to fly it!!!!!!!

thx.

[heberorozco]

hi man, my motor prop is out of track, what can i do with it? i got a new prop and the problem is the same -.- got a new motor and prop adaptor and i still have the problem, how do you fix that?

[PLISKEN12]

maybe instead of those sticks from the fuselage to wing u can use a plastic L flange.
