Skookum SK720 in Goblin 700

**mc_clean_david** · 24-07-2012, 03:45 PM

I have just ordered a Goblin 700 and am thinking of using a SK720. Has anybody used one in a goblin. I am new to the Skookum setup and was wondering if someone could email me their setup for the goblin

I have used Align 3G / 3GX and Beast X Controllers in the past

You are better off going on Helifreak as it is a very popular combination over in the states.
Lots of posts on there about it.

I use a 720. Works like a dream as always. To be honest you are better off setting it ip via the wizards which are so good ypu really cant go wrong. One thing to mention is the canopy can bounce off the top of the sk when fitted to the tray. Best to suspend a stiff wire across between the frames to stop this

Goblin is built just setting up the Skookum and tidying the wiring. I can't get any throttle signal to the ESC even when plugged into IO-A(T) - anyone any ideas?

I am using the power bus along with the skookum

Remember that the throttle is disabled when connected to the pc or field terminal

**panosg** · 31-07-2012, 01:11 PM

What ESC are you using?
Have you set up your throttle end points?
I am not an expert but last time I had the same problem I lowered my elevator trim till I heard the throttle signal.
Oh and make sure you have your blades removed!

Got is sorted - removed one of the cables which was put in horizontal from the power bus to skookum unit and plugged the ESC in to IO-A(T) on the main skookum and it worked once I put the trim down fully. Now, where to hide the wires
