ok guys . i have narrowed down the receiver flashing on the new extra 330 foamy model to the new 30 AMP ESC .
i removed the orange park flyer and fitted a spectrum 6 channel with sattelite receiver , BINDED IT , got a solid light , tested all channels fine , gave it a bit of 4 channel use , and bingo , FLASHING . disconnected and turned off tx , turned on tx and reconnected receiver and the solid light come back , same scenario . i then refitted the orange park flyer , BINDED IT , solid light , and the exact same thing happened .
CONCLUSION - assumption , THE BEC voltage is dropping down under load . this happened without me using the motor also . ( i just hope it isnt a dud SERVO ) ---- they are glued in .
the motor at full song does not cause the flashing to occur . so still could be tx .
i tried the cessna with its own spectrum receiver and binded that . it works without going into flash mode . although when it is plugged in , it isnt counting the cells , instead it is beeping 2 short beeps , and then a long one . other than that is is workking fine .
i then BINDED THE STINGER WITH ITS OWN receiver spektrum , and satelite and that works exactly as it should .
so only the new foamy is browning out .
WHAT A CAN OF WORMS . !!!!!
At one stage the extra 330 lost its bindd and froze its channels on the test floor . i have had 3 crashes due to the same thing with this TX before repair . . i have had lots of trouble so far with electrics that i did not have before .
i'm now not confident in the TX , OR THE 30AMP new ESC , with the new extra 330 . i do not know why the cessna , when plugged in beeps twice and then once ( hi pitched beep - not the cell counting loud deep beep ) . thats not what it should be doing , and the stinger seems to be fine ) i did try fully charged , different battery packs also , so the problems arent batteries .
