RadioMaster TX16s MK II - Learning

I noticed this forum hasn't been used yet, so I thought I'd post something.


I'm new to the club, new to RC airplanes, and new to RadioMaster. A deadly, or at least an expensive combination. So far, I have crashed two planes, one multiple times with no real damage, and the other so bad that it was technically still in one piece, but only if you lifted it carefully.


I learned a lot from those few crashes and will be out to the field next weekend to crash some more.


The TX16S was bought somewhat on a whim, but after some research and talking to one of the club members. There's no real manual for this thing and no written instructions on line, but there is a lot of videos. So far, I've learned to bind it with three different receivers, implement some low/medium/high rates, implement arming switch (on motorcycles that's a kill switch - you don't come up with much RC plane wise if you search for that), and now I'm working on telemetry and gyro stabilization. It works on the ground, now I have to stay in the air for more than three minutes to see if it actually works.
