It has a no interference range of 4000m but I'm wondering how far it would go if I were to fly it around the streets

Dad is a retired aerospace engineer who spent his whole career working on helicopters. He has become a kid in his retirement, so the siblings and I think he would really love a nice RC helicopter (Xmas gift).

What are some recommendations for beginners, brands or types of RC Helicopters to look into? Probably in the $250 range? Total beginner (him and I both).

He once had a really big RC helicopter he got on a whim years ago, but it was lost over the neighborhood and he was very disappointed and didn't want to pay for another- but that was years ago, I doubt he has much notable "experience" from that.

Hello everyone,

I have a Micro TX V2 Module with USB-C interface and I have a Steam Deck that I installed Windows & Linux on.

Is there a way to directly connect the steam deck to the ELRS via it's USBC input and control my drone?

yes yes I know all the cons about steam deck not having the best joy sticks, ECT ECT ect. Just Wana use it to control it so I can build on top of this concept

I just swapped the front baseplate on my traxxas mini e-revo and now my cars steering is very sluggish, but only after using the throttle or moving and it goes back to normal after about 10 seconds. any reasons why or fixes?

I've had this RC Sailboat for over a year now, a friend found it at auction (he wanted it first but realized it didn't have any motor), he said it just needed new rigging and i asked a sailing sub back then, they all reccomended i took it since it was free and the most i'd learn about sailing.

​

Only thing, it's not the just rigging, it's completely rotten, all plastic which has gone yellow and snaps easily, some of the rigging remains but it's rotted, i'm not sure where to find the right rigging or bowsies, even the running rigging looks like it would snap any moment.

​

Not only that, but the rudder is literally crumbling into dust, and the shackle on the boom for the mainsail is just gone, snapped off somehow, the sails (dacron i think?) feel like they'd tear like paper.

​

It's a B-Square racing yacht, worth putting the effort in for a restoration or should i leave it as a model? i'm also more into tallships and older boats in general, not really racing yachts.

hello everyone!

i'm a large scale rc tank modelbuilder and have recently bought myself a radiomaster TX12 MK2 (ELRS). i've now been looking into what receiver to buy, but i'm having difficulty knowing what to buy. i can't get my head around what receiver uses what protocol and is compatible.

i'm looking for a 10 or 12ch pwm receiver that is compatible with it, doesn't need to be anything super fancy. can you guys recommand me a few things?

or do i need an sbus receiver with something to convert that sbus to pwm channels?

ps. look up PANZERBUILD renault on youtube for my previous project. next one is gonna be even more impressive!

I bought a Maverick Q2 Flux and Rlaarlo ROG, and I'd like to buy a lipo balanced charger and some extra batteries. Any recommendations?
