shaft angle


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Hi !
I've just purchase a used electric parkzone p-51 mustang and notice that the engine is not align straight with fuselage (pointing a few degree to the right) is it normal ? or do I have to take it apart to fix it straight ?
Other question : the plane is complete except for the radio so I bought a transmitter & receiver for it (spektrum DX5e) the plane already have a Y connector for the aileron but can they be install without it ?
thanks in advance .
Johnny

Re: shaft angle

It's normal John, right thrust to compensate for torque. Not sure I understand your second question.

Re: shaft angle

The ailerons are usually connected through a Y-cable to the AIL output on the receiver.

If you have a DX5e transmitter you can not separate the ailerons to different receiver outputs as you will need to programme the transmitter to control the NON-aileron output to behave like an aileron.

In short, no.
