@@octyl95 nope pretty regular stuff

@@dustinbailey1980 Alrighty sounds good, thank you much

It has to do with the version. The older firmware could be tricked the new cannot

@@dustinbailey1980 I have the 4660 and the dude at Best Buy installed my DIY that I ordered and also installed my Firestick. I know the Firmware is newer than the 1.3 or whatever version was the popular one. Are you saying that there is no way to run this while driving so the kids are quiet lol? I’m not sure if he grounded the parking break. I thought the bypass would solve this since I can’t do the whole touch for 10 seconds thing

@@MrSquadup2 not sure at all on the 4660 I've only had the 76nex and 7600nex my first one I grounded the wire and it's always worked but it's the old firmware when I got my new truck I bought another one and it tried literally everything, touching the screen in some puzzle combo, bought those little bypass things, installed a toggle switch and then read something about the new firmware makes it not possible. So I sold the new unit and kept the old one

Only 2 people finished this course most people timed out on gate 5 I definitely got the best score of the day on it.

Sometimes he's just scary good!

It's my design. I sell on ebay. Dirtys custom rc

They’re on the right side right above the headlight by two inches or so and one towards the back on the right side almost to the middle.

I have an actual tool meant for taking them out

Thanks! I actually changed mine out successfully! I ended up taking the whole front end off though. Now if I can get this dang engine light off

I can make them any length. I just need a measurement.

@@dustinbailey1980 The FMS SCX24 has two different size driveshafts with different size splines as well so there has to be more to than length. I'll check to see if either is the same size (diameter and spline) and if so I I'll get back to you. Thanks.

@@shockman8014 should be the same situation though. I make the end that goes to the u joint, and the other end you cut off a length of splined shaft and epoxy it inside the tube of the driveshaft

Yes and no. You can still turn it off and on. Air mode keeps your props at a set Idle speed with throttle stick at zero. This literally has nothing to do with this video though. I still run an idle at min throttle. What these settings do is give you the option of turning off the pid loop so gyro isn't trying to control things. As soon as I turn up my throttle stick I have air mode and gyro.

It is. Air mode only works in the third position. The second position is air mode off and pid loop off so if you bounce a landing the quad don't react and throttle up all crazy. I hand catch and take off all the time now because min throttle is literally min throttle you can stick a finger in the prop and it just stops the motor

@@dustinbailey1980 so if I don't go to cli and turn off min throttle at lowest point then when in acro mode and air mode switched off then the quad will still try to level out

@@jamiehill9578 yes air mode is a higher input. But still without the pid loop (gyro) active the motors won't spaz out. But with a 3 position switch it's nice to have the middle position for take off and landing with no automatic control from the gyro, and with really low idle when you bring the throttle down.

@@dustinbailey1980 thanks I'll give it a try,,,,,, so I have to go into beta flight and turn off idle at low point in

@@jamiehill9578 the idle don't turn off. The pid does set pid at min throttle to off. This cuts out the gyro so the quad isn't trying to equalize things and correct them

I would imagine you could just flip the skid plate around. Might need a custom length shaft, if you send me measurements I can adjust. Or I can make links to fit the shaft length

It is possible that a newer version of betaflight has changed something that I'm unaware of but no what enables you to stop the motor is that the gyro doesn't try to correct for that motor RPM changing it lets you stop it freely because it's not in a pit loop

I do I actually have a lengthened micro shark for my personal car and with the custom length it's actually the exact same as the gladiator. Just specify gladiator or micro shark in the comments and I'll get you the right one

That I'm not sure of. I design it to work with the emax servo because it's so affordable

@@dustinbailey1980 yea id still be using it with the emaxx but it doesn’t work with the stock radio because you can’t set channel 3 endpoints, which isn’t cheap to change so using the stock servo saver on the emaxx could save me a shitload o’ money if it’ll fit with the shift key

You could always drill holes to match up.

@@dustinbailey1980 I just wasn’t sure if it would fit because it sticks out more from the servo than the servo horn we’d normally use on the emaxx

You could notch the opening in the servo mount and even use spacers under the servo mounting ears.

Being a top loader style axle it locks up pretty good. The worm gear is pretty hard to turn if you turn the tire and not the driveshaft

Yeah this cars been a struggle. Valve cover, pvc valve, turbo, condenser, accumulator, and battery 2x and it's only got 97k on it

unfortunately the driveshaft just disconnects. technically it would be free spin but the top drive differential locks up without the input

@@dustinbailey1980 you can’t set up a third position on radio to get servo to stop in the section of driveshaft that’s not locked to either tranny or the axel

I believe there would be too steep of angles on the shorter shaft causing binding on the shift fork

Oh man I'm not sure. I only ever ran 2s

Well yes. Once your up and flying you want to use airmode. This keeps the props spinning to sort of float, or defy gravity if you will. Say your going to do a barrel roll. You'll blip the throttle up and then drop the throttle as you roll and then come back smoothly on the throttle. Without airmode it would start to drop very quickly and reduce the amount of roll control you have. Now what happened to you is best avoided by a quick disarm toggle. The gyro was trying to correct the quad that's why it went out of control. In a crash I like to just quickly disarm. Idle up mode will turn off gyro but leave the props idling, sometimes when you land if it's kinda shaky the gyro will actually throttle up for you and try to adjust. Idle up turns that off so even if you land a bit rough you just pull the throttle down and it will land and if a prop hits something it will just stop.

@@dustinbailey1980 oh got it. I had a wrong understanding of AIRMODE on other videos I saw. I honestly thought that with AIRMODE OFF, we will be able to fly like we used to but with the benefit of quad not going nuts when we bump on something. That's what I was thinking the other youtubers were trying say about AIRMODE OFF. It looks like AIRMODE OFF is beneficial during arming and also when you like to check props. Btw, this was my crash today - czcams.com/video/dkv5Ahj2a-U/video.html And yes, I quickly disarmed it when I knew it crashed. It stopped the props. Is this a good idea? I'll turn off AIRMODE when throttle is at 5%. Thank you so much for responding right away! Really appreciate it.

I'm running reefs servos front and rear. The emax is definitely better than stock, I was just disappointed to learn they really don't have much torque. My boys are running them. I got 4 of them when I bought 2 of the rigs. They haven't had any trouble with them.
