    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    The engines "thrust line" also plays a role. The PAU Edge build I did for a buddy I had set 1.5 degrees right thrust and 0 up thrust. 2 degrees up thrust was built in . Should have left it that way. Applying power in KE or level flight made it pull towards the belly and slightly dive in straight...

    It can make the rudder more or less "sensitive" just like the elevator. In extreme cases of tail heavy it can make the plane unstable and stall easily just like the elevator. In KE rudder is the elevator and elevator the rudder.

    Last couple of days have been beautiful weather wise but not able to get the 26cc gasser to the field so instead the drive leading to my house made for a nice run way. For some foamy action. Played "torquen in the bean patch"

    Personally I REALLY like that black anodized True Turn. Looks great on the plane and it spins TRUE. I have used similar spinners like the Pete's but not the first one spun true. The closest one that did was a Mejzlik I got from Daniel Holman. Never had problems throwing a screw but I did use...

    Your very kind! What really turned me on to this new air frame is that it is the "updated" version to the one I did the build thread on. The DL50 and canister should fly it really well as long as I keep it 17 or under. Of course the old one with your:oops: I mean my:D DA70 rocked:attaboy:. If...
