    What process (and tools) did you use to cut the ailerons free? Loving watching this go together! Also, what are you going to use for structure in the wing for hinges? I suppose I should be patient and wait till you get there! LOL

    What is the fiberglass tube that spans into the second rib in each wing for? Assuming to pin to fuse, but why extend beyond the root?

    This airframe would be a nice fit for my VVRC 40 to replace my EF78" extra. Sounds like you are really enjoying it.

    3D MOJO 65 w/20cc Build

    Rudder is maxed, elevator is maxed out now too. Can't go any more down without significant geometry changes as the pushrod hits the top of the stab. Lunchtime fun: The extra travel helped. Easier to get into a knife edge spin. Engine breaking in more is also helping considerably! Probably more...

    Thanks! The right now the cg is hands off inverted flying. I put a longer arm on the servo and went from 44 deg deflection on the elevator to 55. Hopefully going to get to fly at lunch today. Will be interested to see the results. Maybe get you that gratuituos photo, ;) LOL.

    Maidened her yesterday. The mojo flies incredible. Very stable and very slow. Tons of fun!! Engine is getting better as it breaks in, but I can definitely understand the need for more power. Pretty slow pullout out of a hover. Also, I need more elevator throw. Was pretty difficult to get it into...

    Ran into difficulties getting the wing on and off and interference with the servo lead in the wing. I have installed the receiver in front of the wing tube and the servo leads in the wing come out behind the wing tube. With the supports on the wing tube (wonky wing tube according to @BalsaDust ...
