i am getting a palm z indoor plane for xmas and some people say it dosent turn left enought and right too much, some cut some foam off and stick sticky tape on and they say it then turns easiers. can anyone who has a palm z rc place please reply telling me how they fly and if i need to do any cutting and sticking on it . plus if there is anyway of making it go faster or airalon conversions would be fun to look at. thanks
i have now got the Silverlit Palm Z indoor Plane. i have been using it for a few hours now and it is lots of fun but the polystyreene feels weak and looks as if it would break in an istandt but it dosent when crashing, you would have to do it with your hands to break it. the joints for the tail and for the wings fall off because they do not have enough glue but is simple to put back together easy with glue, DO NOT USE superglue it burns through the polystyreene so test your glue on under the wing first like i did ! the cutting off the back wing bit where the rudder cant move needs cutting or you cant turn right which is bad as you can only go left and straight but i did what the guy did in this video but i didnt do the stickytape yet! now the plane turns both ways but in a left turn the plane goes into a circle spirle and its hard to get out of it if you spiral too far, this will probably be fixed when i put some sticky tape on but turning too much is better than not at all. i am flying this in smaller rooms than specificated and im finding it a bit hard but fun anywayz, on the next calm dry day i will take it into my big garden and fly there and i will post on the comment of that flight too. in conclusion so far the plane is fun but cheap it has more than enough power and spirals when turning left after the video but with no sticky tape to stop the turn. thanks for reading and keep checking within the next 3 weeks for another post.
this plane is useful for like 12 hours of fun now when i chuck it, it just swervs to the right. i would not recomend buying this if you expect it to last for months, i used it like non stop for 2 days (fly thn charge fly thn charge) this equaled around 12 hours i havent used it since.
Is it due to the trim or is the actuator seized? It might be something like that. Or the rudder deflection has gone.
If you're throwing it away, I'll take it off you!
You cant now lol! I took it to bits for fun!
