Default MrMel Kontronik Videos Private??

All,

I wanted to review the setup of the HeliJive, and went back to MrMel videos on his website and all the Kontronik Videos are private? I even searched on YoutTube and no joy. I tried multiple browsers and platforms.

I took some notes the first time, but wanted to watch again, I hope they have not been removed.

Thanks

If you need a walkthrough go over to the smacktalk site. Bert did a full review and setup vid of the vbar.

That's unfortunate. Your videos have been so VERY helpful. I am sure Kontronic requested this.

Why would you need videos to help set up a Kontronik ESC?

Their thick user manuals cover all aspects of each function in minute detail, in perfectly written, understandable and concise English...

Seriously Kontronik? That's really unfortunate as a lot of us used these videos. It's a shame to see a company ask you to remove those when you are providing better support than they do.

+1. Also they would probably sell more ESCs because of Mr. Mel's excellent videos.

My slow American brain just detected some ethno-euro-centricity. What up?

It actually reads like many other Euro based posts/threads particularly from Germany. Sorry for misunderstanding it sounded like a continuation of the Kontronik user manual apologists rap.

Seriously? There exist Kontronik user manual apologists?

Who are these people?!?!

Oh yes, they're probably the ones who wrote the user pamphlets...

With regards to Kontronik setup, this thread is an oldie-but-a-goodie:

https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=51581

As for emailing info@kontronik.com, I believe the company is in the process of doing a little bit of rearrangement to their customer service department. Hopefully at IRCHA, Kontronik will introduce their factory's new customer service person so that those with service issues will have a direct line to quickly obtain the help that they need.

Very strange! Mr. Mel did a good job, the manual assumes you already understand how to set up the ESC (typically "German" and my grandfather German so I say without bias!) and Mr. Mel helped a lot. Maybe Kontronik will get smart and allow the help again.


On the iPad again,

Looks like more crazy BS! Align trying to control forums now Kontronic having issues with great helpful videos, sorry but all it does is alienate some of us to these manufacturers. Rant out lol
