I took the Scale Long Ranger Align 700 to the field this morning, charged all the batteries, flight and main, and went to fly - no response after 'initialising' the fbl system. Went back to try to work out why I got no response. I checked all wiring integrity and tried to fly again, still no response - very strange!!
This heli had flown once before after set-up on maiden flight without too many issues!!
Then I made the startling discovery - I had a W1 fbl unit and I WAS TRYING TO FLY IT WITH MY JETI RADIO !!!!!!!!
I have been transitioning several helicopters from Jeti GTR to Spirit W1 and had forgotten that I had set this up with the Spirit.
I had been on night shifts all week and got out this morning to fly for first time and didn't think too well to bring the correct radio.
MAYBE THE W1 SHOULD BE PAINTED A DIFFERENT COLOUR TO THE GTR UNIT ??
