3D A Red Aero RC 108 Corvus is born!

I figured while my table is clean, I had better get my Corvus up there and going. Only been 2 weeks since I worked on a Corvus.



Mounted the LG, wheel, wheel pants, gear cuffs, tail gear, rudder, fuel tank, Rx located and E-Switch mounted.

Did some work on mine Sunday.  I opted to run the inner most servo bay and the outer bay on the wings.  I experimented on Pedro's slightly.  But, it will not effect the performance that he will have in any way.  

 

I mounted the elevator servos and programmed travels.  Made a throttle pushrod from for 4-40 music wire and a solder link.  It is the most bullet proof connection I can think of.  I had to shim up the motor mount 1 thin fender washer to get the spinner to line up with the cowl.  I also mounted the cowl.  Which reminds me, I need to reprogram my EPA on throttle.  All elementary things, so no pics taken...  But I still need to mount the mufflers, cut the cowl for the stacks and plug caps.

 

Also pla ed my TDRC wire order and added some blingy to it.

 I think black louvers will look killer on the black part of the cowl.  Well, atleast blend in.

Gonna rest and relax for the nite.  Been a little busy this week.  Ordered heli parts, ordered blingy parts for this Corvus, worked on my 4 wheeler.  So, kick back, relax and go watch some TV!

Gettin some work done on the Corvus today.  Got a box of goodies from @TailDraggerRC.  Have most all my extensions installed, and a prelim CG check.  Going on the edge of tail heavy with the servo in the tail.  So, I know what to expect on maiden.
