Some more work, Made some Tuque rods. Two wing panels needs Wing tips and Ailerons. I am thinking of Glassing these wings.🤔 Steve

In the near future, we are talking 12 years later here. How much longer ? I do miss BEB, My only regret is not realizing that he was at a fly-in that I attended had I known I would of gone over to him and had a chat. 😩 Steve

Thanks Mike, I thought about flashing the Rx but that will be tomorrow now as I have to get them out of the models . Plus if I flash UNI i would need to get the activation codes from some one. Cheers Steve.

Looks like my D8 Rx are ok but my D16 Rx no longer working and will not bind on the internal or MPM. Will look into it further tomorrow . x4r D16 not working x6R D16 not working X8R D16 is working but I think I have Uni firmware on that one. more to test. Thanks for the help so far. BTW I have been using Frsky since the very early days when they only had Hack Modules I have several of them in different Transmitters Also have lots of Rx too including the early V and D models. Steve

Found it just doing test, but have bind to my R6mine thanks

Sorry Mike where do I get this firmware is it the same as ISRM-S-X9DP2019_2.1.0B.frsk from https://www.frsky-rc.com/taranis-x9d-plus-2019/ Cheers steve.

Mine only goes up to 63 and reports as invalid protocol. The highest number I can enter without getting the invalid protocol is 60_2 a bit stuck for now. 😩 Thanks for the help so far 👍 Steve.

Cheers Brian, No mine is not the same as yours. I got mine a long time ago from Banggood so will be a copy, but I did update mine not so long ago possible from that site. Steve 🤔

So now I can glue the wing skin to the bottom of the wing. Pins are used to make sure that the leading edge is level by feeling where the ribs are and pushing down and pinning in place. weight it down to make sure good contact with the glue that was run along all the ribs and spars ect a slow glue I find best as this allows me a bit of time to ensure all is in place and clamped down. I have trimmed off the over hang of sheeting. All that is needed now is the wing tips and Trailing edges. Steve.

The wing skin is made up of 1/16th Balsa sheet 4 inch wide and if you cut one full sheet 4 x 36 diagonal you can use 1 and a half sheets of Balsa per wing side. For those that have not done this before, Here is how to join two sheets of 1/16th balsa to form one large wing skin. Butt the two sheets together and weight them down so that they do not move. Now stick them together with tape as above. Turn over so that the gap between the two sheets are open that way you can run some super glue into the gap. Now turn the sheets over so that you can close the gap up and quickly wide away any excess glue. Peel of the tape and your done. Steve

Hello again done some more work on this today. So here you can see I have placed some wing supports on the wing plan to lay the top side of the wing down. Here you can see that I have started to remove the building tabs from the bottom of the wing. All the building tabs have been removed and sanded the bottom of the wing to ensure all is true before adding the bottom wing skin which is made up from 1/16th Balsa sheet. Steve.
