Arun. I can try and explain but you will have to bear with my rudimentary drawing techniques. I might be incorrect but aligning the brushes as shown increases their life. Smaller motors mostly have the thin wires making up the brushes like shown in the picture. In the attached pic, the arrows show the direction the commutator should revolve, so there is no carbon to shape itself as per the motor revolution. Does not mean that the motor cannot revolve in the other direction;it surely can. I've also seen some brushes having a circular kink at the point where the commutator contacts meet the brushes. Probably that is to facilitate motion on both sides.

If the movement was in the opposite direction to as shown, tension being higher closer to the fulcrum on the brush, the slot on the commutator would experience more traction moving inwards causing higher wear and slightly lesser rpms.

Update: Marked various points on the image. Yellow motor direction, red brush fulcrum, white tension points

Satya,
thanx for the quick response bro, that problem has been resolved, but I have selected NEFT transfer as the mode of payment, but my bank (PNB) does not supports NEFT transfers after 06:00 pm, so I'll be able to pay you tomorrow morning, can you please hold my order until then?

and please call me Bilal, I have done nothing to be elevated

one more thing, is any kind of programming required with this flight controller?

And please satyagupta can you upload a build log using the kit parts?
:thanks:

That form ever follows function. This is the law.

I am very sorry guys but today while i was making a how to video i realized that motors sent by my supplier is incorrect :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: Due very silly mistake by the supplier i wont be able to send the kit from Monday. :( i am very sorry for this but i cannot send you a incorrect kit cos the motors that i have will not work with the prop set that i have. I will get the correct motors in like 4-5 days of time. And i will ship them from next Monday (3rd of June)

I have conveyed this to all the buyers who placed order for the kit. And each and every buyer has co-operated with me. I am very thank full to all members for understanding the issue and co-operating with me in the delay  :bow: :bow: :bow:

Satyagupta, As you are yet to import some more CL (Coreless) motors, would you purchase some extra motor and prop for paper planes and spare ? And if similar cheap rx+esc available in combination with linear/coil & magnet servo combo ? Hobbyking have similar but not so cheap. Price for similar board are reducing day by day. So, I ask you this. Similar RTF available for plane @3998/- at RCBazaar. So, you can get the similar from same supplier.

And for motor, CW and CCW does affect for their build in magnetic neutral axis shifting for armature reaction and hence, full load torque and life of brass commutator due to increased sparking. I have burnt already one CL motor brass and later replaced with thin wire.
We have to unite and to prove ourself to make indigenous products as well as marketing / Canvasing them. I'm sure we must achieve success if we try unitedly.

arun.sreelakam

Kalyan sir you can go for the v911 heli spare board for esc and 2 servo combination under 6gm
And binds with turnigy and fly sky...
For just 10$ in ebay
I have build one with it, works really nice...

@Kalyan sir, i can get the CL motors and the V911 board as suggested by arun but as i am dont have any knowledge about planes i would be only seller for you. I would talk with Arun and get the board. As motors and battery i already have them.

@Arun bhai so that V911 board that you told me about is that the same thing Kalyan sir asking about?

Satya bro kalyan sir is taking about these kind of boards
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__18823__2_4Ghz_SuperMicro_Systems_Receiver_Brushless_ESC_and_2_x_Linear_Servos_All_in_one_5ch_.html
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__17638__2_4Ghz_SuperMicro_Systems_Double_Linear_Servo.html

Which are expensive and also only compatible with the super micro series transmitter modules from hk...
I just suggested the v911 as an alternative.. I used it successfully.. And i think its enough for a 3-4 ch micro plane...
And I searched a lot for a compatible one within budget but unable to find one.. But sure there may be... :)

And kalyan sir did you gone through this?
I always open this in a tab for a try but fails due to lack of electronics knowledge...This is the cheapest and lightest rx for flysky, turnig
