    I'll post another picture later today, but its a magnet, the pink part being simply the handle . The receiver battery and servo battery both have a fail safe switch which is activated by removing the magnet from the hidden switch, so no visible switches.

    Gluing the stab in place after checking everything is straight, and making provisions for the rudder servo wire. Also you will notice in one of the picture what appears to be shock absorbers, well that's because that's what they are. I will install these on the rudder since its free wheeling to...

    IMAC hobby getting expensive

    I would also like to add that my main reason for starting this is for people who wants in but can't afford the high price tags that some are asking, and yet still have very reliable and good equipment, please don't let this touch your personal feelings its more for the masses

    IMAC hobby getting expensive

    I hope I am not offending anyone by this thread, I am more talking to the masses then a select few. As for overkill versus underkill, there is a large area between these two statements. Overkill is most always there, not just with equipment but in building also, and I am not for one instant...

    making the control system on one wing, you might ask why make all the parts when you can get some in the hobby shop, well I have a good reason, first we don't have a local hobby shop, second to order from anywhere, it would cost $10 to $15 shipping for a few low cost items and take 2 to 3...

    fitting pin hinges to boost and to aileron on finished wing, I use vasoline on the center of the hinge, then apply heat with the heat gun so it will liquify and go into the joint of the hinge which quickly jells back before I apply to the holes in the control surface , I use Polyurethane...
