Tone-the-glider Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Hi all Seem to be having constant problems wit my Altis 4. Used it a couple of weeks ago in a foamy comp, (easy glider) seemed all good, had it set for 150M height and 30 second motor run. Could see to prop stop after 30 sec. Had to disconnect after each flight and all was fine. Now I have it in my F5J model , in order to get it to work I have to "reset the throttle stick" After each reconnection I have to start with stick on full then listen for two beeps, move the stick to minimum. Then the model goes into the sound (music) showing all is correct. This happens every time I connect the power so it does not seem to keep the settings. In addition the motor runs but only for about 15 secs. I have looked at the settings on the laptop. all is as should be (????) in competition tab shows........ see screenshot below. And help would be greatly appreciated as I hope to enter F5J comp next Sunday. Cheers Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tone-the-glider Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 UPDATE Seems like I have to do the same process with the throttle stick even with the Altis disconnected. I will have a go at checking the settings of the esc using a programing card. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tone-the-glider Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 Think I have found the problem. On the transmitter there was an additional mix applied to the throttle channel. (dont know how) After inhibiting the mix, all I had to do was set the total throttle throw, and it was fine . I then connected the Altis, and the motor run for only 30 sec, and then even after I was able to restart as I have Emergency Motor ON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
