    3D JAG's 35% Carden Edge

    The Carden flew it's maiden today. I had @capthis fly it and I'm glad. It was very tail heavy. So I moved the batteries forward to move the CG. Well my battery wiring was to short so I had to make new extensions. Well I screwed up the polarity and didn't realize it until my power board was...

    You bring a wing tube and some servo clips and we will fly it tomorrow. I dont think I'll make it out there today. My tube might show up today but not counting on it.

    BlueBird HB 50B servos

    I setup my 50B today on the Rudder of my 35% Carden. While setting it up on the bench I ran a long extension lead over to my power board. In this configuration, I did get some jitters in the movement. But I did not see that when I have it in the plane and plugged directly into the power board...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Took a trip up to my work office this week in Joliet, IL. Found a nice field in Tinley Park to fly at. Got in 6 good flights on the EE60 on Tuesday. Three in the morning and 3 in the evening. Getting more comfortable with this plane every time I fly it. Cant wait to get my Carden Edge in the air.

    Share your ideas for safe pre-flight and flying

    I'm bad about range checking. I need to get into the habit of adding that to my routine for sure. For sure now that I'm building bigger and more expensive planes.

    And I looked up the wrong weight on the DLE. The DLE111 and DA100 weigh the same. A good source weighed them for me.
