Hi folks, bit of an update on the build.
I have got the hull painted and sealed, all electrics/electronics fitted, motors and props all connected and rudders. All looking good, even had her bum wet in bath tub with no leaks.......but as she stands she needs 20lb of ballast to get her down to the water line.......all in all good but slow progress.
Unfortunately I have come across a problem with the electronics. Wired up everything with correct rated wiring, termination all fitted with crimped bootlace ferrules or soldered ends, i did make one error due to being distracted, i had the wrong polarity on the P93, this blew both fuses on the P102 board, no problem i thought, corrected mistake, replaced fuses, switched on and all good. P94 went through its start up so ready to test. I have it set for 100% mix. Tx is FlySky FS-I6S with the 10 channel rx, all hooked up as instructions but could i get it to work correctly......no, it would do weird things? Push stick forward, motors start then one would go into reverse, then jump back to forward. Runs ok if you pull stick back? Push rudder stick over, bogh motors run correctly, push rudder stick other way the motors go opposite direction but one will jump into opposite direction then back again. Very little control on throttle its virtually full throttle all the time! No i thought with the earlier mistake i had damaged the P94, so ordered a new one, fitted that and it is the same! Gave Component shop a call and said it sounds like the Tx is not compatible with the P94.
Has anybody had similar problems either with the P94 or the FlySky...........any recommendations for a Tx that is compatible with the P94.......7 or more channels, i am not made of money and can flog the FlySky on if is not up to the job, it is just so frustrating that something that should be so simple is not and costs an arm and a leg if it goes wrong!
Does anyone know what protocol the P94 reads, this may give a clue to compatability issues.
Thanks in advance.
