Its in the middle of the fuse. I just have it sticking out where my Mapping camera would normally go. I wanted to make sure it worked before I cut another hole in the fuse for it lol...

Took my 40 size profile out for a few flights today before heading to the grocery store. Fuel up get it running and I got that little piped 55ax screaming and running great. About 3 minutes into the first flight I notice it's wanting to start rolling to the right and won't snap or roll like it should. Bring it around for a slow fly by and see my right aileron is locked in the slightly up position. Land and sure enough that servo is locked up tight as could be. So a hopeful hour or so of flying turned into 15 from unloading my truck to loading it back up.
Moral of the story. If you only take one plane to fly something will happen to ruin the day of flying.

Tony Russo did a great job on this. I was really hoping the new PAU ARF would have been this scheme ha ha!!! I know others would have my scheme, but at least I could easily get another one going if something happened to this one!
My first 40%er was a Dalton 260 that my Granddad and I built and I still have it today even though it is busted up from a hard landing it had due to A123 batteries failing on me. Really love how these planes fly!
