Iv been looking about n still think a exrra type plane would be best to build n fly!.. with the fantom bined i want to build something that will fly,but the big fall back is i have no pc or printer to get plans... So the big question is could i build a extra with just dimensions by this i mean (fuse front to bk 70cm) like.....http://www.depronfoam.co.uk/html/thedge_fyfort.html But if u look at the pic it looks like the leading edge of wing is just infront of start of the canopy! look at the front to leading edge 12cm but the canopy is 20cm from front  So how far bk or forwards should the wing be! Pls help |

How do you do this forum without a PC? Obviously you have some kind of communication interface. Phone only?
In the US we have print shops (Kinkos) You can take plans downloaded to a flash drive there.
If a plan is simple enough you can do it by measurements, but for the first time out a printed plan would be a huge help.

Paul man, on photobucket, when you're in albums, select a pic or video. It brings up a box with 4 choices. Just click on ' direct link'. This copies the link and you can just paste it on the forum - its easier than me having to look for pauliopilot all the time.  |

If it stutters (won't run) even at low throttle you likely have a back connection-broken wire, cold solder joint flux in the bullet, that sort of thing.
If you are over propped and pushing it, well, it's over propped. Check eflte prop specs. The lower number is for 3S and the larger one is for 2S usually.

Yeah it dose what ur saying...but had this motor/esc in my wing with no probs!!
Can it just have a bad connection all of a sudden tho?
When i turn the motor its free but if done slowly i can feel the it wanting to stop at each magnet

Yeah, you took it off > which moved the wires > which may well have broken something loose. I've had them break in flight (crappy TowerPro wire).
That feeling you have of 'notches' when you hand turn the motor is called cogging. In spite of what you may hear other folks claim all you are feeling is the stator poles being attracted by the magnets. It will tell you nothing at all about power or condition of the motor.
