Exceed RC - Falcon 40 Beginners Video Guide

[RTFHELI]

We are all here to help further the cause for this great hobby.  The videos from Nuttcaze really help and hope that everyone can gain some insight as everyone knows that user manuals aren't too helpful.

hey nuttcaze this isnt really about your topic. but i watch alot of your videos on youtube do you think you cuild get some videos on the esky lama v4

                          thanks

[RTFHELI]

He would probably refer you to the Exceed Blazing Star videos.  They are very similiar to the E-SKY Lama.

I drew them as 3D models and then had tehm made on a sls machine. Tried to match the styling of the falcon the best I could. I have the stl files for them if your interested.

Sure, i would like to have them, but what are they made of?

Looks like some sort of Duraform Polyamide that is a standard Material.

"what the prob is"..-martin l.

is there and switches on the transmitter that says channel 1,2,3... and also says "nor" or "rev"

[jjh25]

no to both..i wonder could it be the DIP switches..when i opened it up new 1,3,4 were off(normal) ..2 was on(reverse)(2 is the aileron)..but the manual said turn them all off..that what i did  :?...im gonna switch 2 and see

[jjh25]

ok that was it..the dip switches..for my falcon 40 v2...1,3,4(normal or off) and 2 is (on or reverse)

? i have the double horse 9087 and the batt is a 7.4 li-poly..and so is the battery for my falcon 40v2..butt the weight is different(falcon batt is heavier)...can i use the one from my dh 9087 on my falcon?

Well, i will be brief. Falcon 40, flown 5-6 times, all in short bursts.
It was working great, i had a few ding crashes, nothing huge, broke the skids after a gust of wind, no biggie there, however I packed My heli up to head home, and when i got home, it would no longer work...
Let me explain not work.
I get no sync-ing when i plug in the battery, nor will the transmitter do anything.
I am getting a very very fast flashing LED on the receiver, but nothing as for power or control. I am grounded for now, as in not flying, and it really stinks.
Ill take any suggestions. Maybe a new Receiver? Do they have fuses that can blow?
Thanks!

 KM  check all of the wires in the receiver that are plugged in - is this a 2.4ghz or a 72mhz system  = VIC

[km12288]

This is the 2.4 and as far as i have checked re checked and checked again all wires are plugged

[jjh25]

km..just a thought..check all the batt on the Tx(transmitter)...and check the plug is there power when u turn it on??

[km12288]

Well here is what im dealing with.
The heli is supposed to sychro the blades when the batt. is plugged in, i have stopped getting that for some reason, however the led light comes on, and if i touch the appropriate prongs on the 4in1 the blades will move, i will check the battery in the remote, but i did do a swap once already.
I am so fresh out of ideas.
Thank you all for you help,
Im a young one, i need it.
