    IMAC PAU Extra Build 105" assembly

    Dan i agree with the servo in the tail added to the heavier CG issue and the tunned pipes added more weight to the rear. I have all three 2600Life batteries behind the firewall and still will have to run a 6.3 nose weight just to get the balance at 6.5" . I might take out the rear servo and see...

    So the number on the botttom is in seconds 0-400 ? I agree with Snoopy1 that it seems the tempature is lagging behind the rpm but this could be true and it takes a fews second for temp to reach the fin and temperature sensor . The first sensor is connect with rpm sensor and i noticed that at...

    I see the front box is angled back to fit under the cowl , very specialized . The issue i had is that it blocked me from adjusting the needles on the carb .In my 3dhs extra there was no place for the throttle servo to mount when the carb was turned needles facing up .

    Thanks Terry about the lock nut that clevis does move side to side without nuts on top or down , they swivel from side to side . I used a H9 clevis for the rudder bolt to the servo which is mounted under the elevator . Thanks Guys

    Like those hubs , even with 22spline is 16.3 degrees even very harder to get true mechanical match... With you balance the second servo to the first, you won't need to adjust the second servo mechanical to get the same throw . Even you aileron differential / servo balancing will only need a bit...
