sorry to be off topic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost my password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
@Dangelo Neil I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I was setting up another plane and noticed the pitch feed forwards were low, I went back to this video, found the value of 80 and used that for my setting. Thanks for sharing that info. Thanks for the two videos. We'll be featuring them in about a week.
Great job Sir Andrew and thanks for taking the time to show how you set up a Matek F405-Wing board, and thank you for showing that this wing is more then enough and checking that the control movements are the correct way in the auto mode I hope all is well at the Andrew house looking forward to part 2 take care
One of the better vid's Andrew re 405 board going in my FX61 never had a FC in it, will still retest wing before hand. Has not flown for three years. Cheer's Mate.
Perfect wing for it. iNav will effectively provide a 50 / 50 elevon mix and 70 expo. So get your throws right for that and you won't get any nasty surprises.
THANKS, thank for your ..................................!!! For this recording, very detailed and helpful, one of the best about the AR Wing 900. Regards.
I look forward to seeing a few videos of you flying it buddy. By the way - thanks for your help with your parrot disco mods. I did the battery table mod and looking to do the soft mod soon. Your videos really helped me out. Cheers
Mine is still being built but a few who have been flying the AR for a while have discovered that it can "pitch-bob" because the wings are too flexible and twist in bumpy air. It makes the video bob up and down. Most are laminating and/or adding additional sparring. I'll be modding with 1.5mm rods diagonally across the wings to stiffen it up.
Good timing, I just finished my first build of an AR Wing and followed the guide myself. Haven’t been able to maiden it yet, and I just might wait for the next video to see if you crash!
Great tip on the 405 setup and tricks looks good . im building an inav bixler2 and these basic pid settings were giving me trouble. thanks Andrew much clearer now👍👍
Also, lately I have been using epoxy/micro balloons for all UFL connectors and electrical connectors. When you think about all the times we move them around, we invariably will break them off. If you break a UFL antenna, you have a really difficult task of repairing it properly.
My AR900 circa 2021, came with motor and mg servos installed. It also came with a plastic skid pan for the underside. I used a Zippy 3 cell 2200 mah up front with stock motor on rear (2212 2300kv) Flight controller in centre of fuselage. To get near CG, I need to have the RunCam 2 installed. If I want to power the Runcam 2 also from the flight controller I will have to remove the battery and add 50 -60 gms of lead to compensate. This model only kept me occupied for about an afternoon - is that good? Still raining outside!
This Wing configuration is only for skilled pilots and engineers. The Twinstar type plane is easier to use for single eyed UAV/FPV. If you use only 2 servos on the Wing it is better to use A-grade parts, also ESC, UBEC and motor and prop.
Andrew, great Illustrated video on the AR wing. Question I needed answer is I have an AR wing with the Matek F722 FC can I use the same parameters from the F405 into the F722 FC?
Fantastic build Andrew! That should help to demonstrate the flight characteristics of our beginners setups. One suggestion. In configuration you haven't enabled Permanantly Airmode. This should be enabled all the time in fixed wings or you won't have any stabilization if you glide the plane.
Thanks Marc. I am deliberately leaving Air mode off these days, mainly so I see ACRO in the OSD rather than AIR. I start with planes that fly well in manual mode so a manual glide should be OK.
@@AndrewNewton interesting. I might try that too on some planes. Never tried it as Pawel highly suggests to keep it on. Not sure how it will behave in a glide.
@@MarcFPV I haven't had a chance to test it yet but one of my subscribers tells me it makes no difference at all. I also read that you will have the throws available in Acro rather than full Manual.
Andrew great videos easy to follow. However, in the beginning you showed a Frsky X4R but on the installation it appeared you were using the X6R judging by the number of pins. the 6 version has Sbus. Or am I seeing things..........um!
How much fly time do you get with your setup? I wanted to make a long range build with the R9M module but now (after buying all the stuff...) I realized that this wing doesnt have space inside for a 4000+mah 3s :( Good video btw.
The beauty of this & the S800 are you can build them nearly any way you like & they fly well. A great guide but I disagree with the rigidity on motor choice & FC. I run a Matek F411 wing, racestar BR2205 1722kv green motor, and gemfan 6042 prop. With 4S1P 18650 battery all up weight is 550 grams including the 4S1P lion and it flies for 20-30 minutes & rips if you open up the throttle.
just a note... @6:48 where the F405 wing has the power/ground around the wrong way - just be aware that if you're using an F722 or F765 wing board, they have that fixed they are the "correct" way around
Video Signal, V+ and Ground solder pads are in a different order on the boards. F722 and F765 match conventional servo extension wires, but the F405 doesn't
I am sure it is in the instructions however you didn’t show checking that the control movements are the correct way in the auto modes. As you know this is totally vital to make sure the controls correct any movements in roll and pitch.
Sir Andrew in my AR Wing Mini Inav build I First centered servo horns using servo tester then connected to my inav board with servo midpoints at 1500 on both. After powering my receiver and battery pack and inav board one servo went up and another went down. Do i need to adjust my servo horns for a 90 degree in inav or i just immediately proceed to adjusting my servo linkages to achieve neutral setting?
Great wing Andrew.. Congrats for setting up successfully. 😀 I built same AR wing supplied 19v through 5S1p Li-ion (AUW ~670g , 5S1P battery weighs ~270g) still does not fly😂 drive.google.com/file/d/1GTzZI7OjX9jRyYtUC8GQngcA4Nxj4LXn/view?usp=drivesdk Build: 1.

Batteries; I am using Lithium-ion 4S1P (4 batteries connected in series), delivering voltage around 12-13 volts. Tried with 3S packs as well to reduce weight but still did not fly. Weight of batteries along with the holder is around 130g (each battery 30g + case holder 10g). As an alternative, I tried to change batteries to Varicore 18650B green ones (see pic attached), no luck! 6. Props: 5030 Tri-blade
You are a great radio control professional, greetings from the south of Spain, thumb up.
Thank you very much!
That may be the best wing setup video I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen them all! Thanks Andrew, I really enjoyed it and learned a few things as well. 😎
Thanks Tom, should be testing it in a day or two
I agree 👊👊💪💪

Sweet wing and very Good video. So excited to be starting a new adventure this summer!! Thanks for video and Bless
Have fun!
@@AndrewNewton hope no bully's in the wing part of Hobby.. like is in drones?. All I care about.. Thanks God bless

Thanks Jeff, I haven't noticed any bobbing in my light weight PNP build. We shall see with this heavier iNav setup.

I'll try my best Joe. Hopefully allowed out Monday
Thank you so much for putting the pdf file below I dont have FB so I cant view there thanks
No FB? What do you do with all your spare time?
I can't wait to do this build. Finally :-)
Great tip on the 405 setup and tricks looks good . im building an inav bixler2 and these basic pid settings were giving me trouble. thanks Andrew much clearer now👍👍
Nice combo. Just use the defaults (not from the preset page) and increase the FF values until you have enough throws in ACRO mode
@@AndrewNewton greatly appreciated Andrew👍
That was an interesting sounding motor, on the plane flying over, at the very end.
Sound effect, dont know what it's meant to be.
Also, lately I have been using epoxy/micro balloons for all UFL connectors and electrical connectors. When you think about all the times we move them around, we invariably will break them off. If you break a UFL antenna, you have a really difficult task of repairing it properly.
Thanks for this video Andrew. I'm about to do an inav on a zohd dart xl with an matek f405, so this is really usefulfor me.
Good stuff. They need a hefty upward throw to launch.
@@AndrewNewton good to know, thanks!

I like the idea of a stronger motor/esc combo. Mine felt a bit anemic at launch.

Could you do a video where you explain all the modes for airplanes and drones?
Check out my iNav playlist
Excelent video
the cable tied video transmitter is a good idea to avoid glueing ...Have not noiced that anywhere before.
Yes they handle the heat well
Could you post the plans please?
Andrew, great Illustrated video on the AR wing. Question I needed answer is I have an AR wing with the Matek F722 FC can I use the same parameters from the F405 into the F722 FC?
OSD, PIFFS and modes should be OK. Servo numbers might be different. You would have to carefully check the new board function before trusting it.
@@AndrewNewton I appreciate your reply. On the bench for the surgery and setups. Thank you, God Bless.
Good tutorial Andrew, we are all still in Prison here...Sun is finally with us..🤔😳😷
Our parole might be announced tomorrow, fingers crossed.
@@AndrewNewton I just know we won't be released anytime soon...Out idiot Government have only just stopped people flying in...8 weeks too late.

My kind of setup. I'll go back the PNP motor and try a LION too after testing this
@@AndrewNewton I think the stock motor is 2300 kv not 1722 kv. With a 6" prop at WOT I think that may be too much for a 4S1P lion.
just a note... @6:48 where the F405 wing has the power/ground around the wrong way - just be aware that if you're using an F722 or F765 wing board, they have that fixed they are the "correct" way around
Could you elaborate on what you mean? I have a 405 Wing and 765 but haven't actually used them yet.
Video Signal, V+ and Ground solder pads are in a different order on the boards. F722 and F765 match conventional servo extension wires, but the F405 doesn't
@@AndrewNewton correct that's what I was saying
I am sure it is in the instructions however you didn’t show checking that the control movements are the correct way in the auto modes. As you know this is totally vital to make sure the controls correct any movements in roll and pitch.
Good point thanks
Am curious
Pls make a lua script tortureal on q7 and jumper 16
I dont use LUA. Look to Painless 360
Does the BN-880 need to be flashed for use with the Speedybee F405W?. What is the best INAV version to start with for Windows10? Thanks Andrew.
BN-880 works fine as it comes. I'm not a Windows user sorry
Lol with standard esc.
Sir Andrew in my AR Wing Mini Inav build I First centered servo horns using servo tester then connected to my inav board with servo midpoints at 1500 on both.

Do i need to adjust my servo horns for a 90 degree in inav or i just immediately proceed to adjusting my servo linkages to achieve neutral setting?
Inaccurate servo tester would be my guess. Mine does the same. Best to start with servo arms at 90º or near
Sir Andrew Newton I will then adjust servo arms at 90 degrees based on the midpoint setting of inav at 1500 on both.. Thank you for the advice..
Great wing Andrew.. Congrats for setting up successfully. 😀
