There are many cheap copies Ashley, so don't bother with those

Look at the approved dealers like ALS Hobbies and Inwood Models

Less costly are Orange and Lemon DSMX receivers, look at RapidRC

Lot of tips here Andy

Modellers workshops

The AR9020 has 2 banks of pins arranged both ways Tosh

It is easier to show one bank of pins from an AR6210 that is clearer, illustrating all the minus pins align to the

outer wall of the casing. The chamfer and pin out is the same On your rx.

The line drawing shows the AR9020 alignment minus to the top of the case in the top row

Minus to the bottom of the case in the bottom row

Personally, I would choose to fly a flat wing, as Cubs are a favourite.

But you do lose the " self righting " properties that the dihedral gives, and the extra stability.

Flying without dihedra! comes naturally after a while that whenever you roll the wings, you need to roll back again for straight and level

It is marked up Tosh

Below AUX 1

Minus, plus and signal

Always been a problem Tosh, since day one.

The only plugs that fit are Spektrum servos

On my servos, I run down on sides and flats of the plugs until the shine has gone, and then they fit

As some do have the chamfer but are still tight

Thanks for clearing that up GDB

Also, if you look at Andreas set up, he has nothing plugged into channel 1

So at least one other plug is is the wrong place

Mike, Nigel has already suggested that the answer to your question is " No "

A 120 is sufficient and you should plan along those lines.

2 Things Lads

In both photos I saw of the Tx screen shows a large MO 1 which could alter the perception of the sticks control

If expecting MO 2

And

Here is the diagram for channels

And the MO 1 screen

I have about 10 Questions Steve, but here are a few.

Did set the model to " Sailplane " before programming?

So you set the " Wing" and number of servos

And you set the " Tail " and number of servos?

From the manual this note

Select wing and tail types before doing any other programming

You may already have found if left at " normal " there is no flap delay

Am thinking your problem is in this " Flap System " Window

And the original set up being done before programming

Ian, you have named both top notch flight sims

I learned to fly heli scale with Phoenix well before the model

If you can get either sim you are in the right place

If you look here Ian, the site has struggled before equipping Apple Mac

Flight sims are very useful so keep looking

If you ordered different colours Simon, check them carefully

As Quadcopter sets come right and left handed, that is CW and CCW

Clockwise and Counterclockwise

The correct prop blows air to the tail

Tether the model down firmly to test

Good ideas from kc Stu.

The most difficult and expensive part of the process is the plug, which you have demonstrated, you have the skill to

make Stu

Then a kindly school could run that plug through a vac former for you

Have a look on Vortex or give them a ring

Just an alternate Roger, check out this 4 max page as 3S and some 4S, come out the same size.
