    3D A Red Aero RC 108 Corvus is born!

    I need to schedule a visit with the incidence meter.  Carrying some right aileron trim, quite a bit actually......  Elevator was almost perfect, and rudder was just a couple of clicks to the right.   Pedro's is carrying some as well, but not nearly as much as mine does.

    3D A Red Aero RC 108 Corvus is born!

    Maidened both Corvi a bit ago.  We both have grins on our faces a mile wide!  Battling a 10-15 mph wind, fortunately it is right down the run way here at CBB.

    Looks like a beautiful day to do Corvi maidens!  Chilly til about 11a, then warming up to the mid 60's around 3p.  Cleaning up the memory card in my phone for pics.

    IMAC new to me dalton 260/300, just want to fly it!!!

    Continuing on with my story......   Fellow out in PA had a brand new Carden 300 built for him by a reputable builder and masterfully finished.  This is no guff, I heard the story from a good friend of mine in PA who also builds and flys masterpieces.  The owner of the 300 babied the...

    3D A Red Aero RC 108 Corvus is born!

    I havent been this excited for a maiden flight since my 91" Corvus took flight in Feb this year.  It was such a beautiful flight, trimmed out all sorts of wonderful, throw it into a crankshaft, and that would be the demise of my 91" Corvus.  87 seconds into the maiden.  Expensive day, I would...

    IMAC new to me dalton 260/300, just want to fly it!!!

    Looks like there was too much cut out of the bottom of the base of the gear.  While you are in there, inspect the gear plate glue joints.  Personally, I have never been a fan of "gear legs".  I've trailered airplanes 10s of thousands of miles with just bungee cords wrapped around the lg, hooked...

    GP 123 or DLE 120

    My EME 120 has to warm up a little before it will transition.  It is a honker!  Never thought I would like a Chinese engine, but I like this one.  But I'm just waiting for it to grenade!

    Looks like DA Australia got something new.

    The cylinders fire at 180° of each other, much like a quad.

    There will be some pix.  As far as videa goes......  Will see.....  No big fancy Sleepy cameras here.....  Plus Ive been having some video issues with my phone for taking videos.  When I record video, it reduces the physical size of the frame, not pixels.   It will happen as long as it...

    Damn, Terry.  You "could" go a little easier on the equipment, ya know....  Then you wouldn't be rebuilding, much like I am.

    3D A Red Aero RC 108 Corvus is born!

    Finally!!  It's done!  Rudder control horn is drying, gear covers are drying as well.  Rudder pushrod is made as well.   Looks like Sunday for my test flight.  Also looks like Pedro will fly his as well, for the first time too.

    3D A Red Aero RC 108 Corvus is born!

    Got about 2 hours more work left on the Corvus.  Gotta glue in the rudder control horns, make a rudder pushrod, and finish the LG cuffs.  Got the backplate drilled, prop mounted, and finalized the CG.  2 2600mAh Glacier Rx packs are mounted next to the fuel tank.  I can go to 3600's if the...
