Thanks. She's about to fly again. Horizontal is fixed, now trying to come up with a skid.

Cograts on the maiden. Any moreadventures happen this week?

 

[abaser]

Not yet. My schedule has killed my free time.

Good build abaser. I'm getting ready to build the SBACH 25 using a Cobra park 450 equivalent.

Thanks. From what little but I've flown it, it handles nice. Very quick to respond, and seems light. One area to beef up though is the h stab mounting. I broke mine loose on the second flight while taking it easy still. I suggest adding triangle stock to the top and bottom of the stab, next to the fuse, on both sides. Feels much better now.

Hi I have a Futaba 9CA and am switching from 72 to 2.1 GHZ. I ordered a FrSky DFT 2.4 module for my radio. How did you like it in your 8fu and were there any problems?

 

[abaser]

I've had them in 3 models without incident. However, I'm not the daily flyer either. I'd say I've got roughly 50-60 flights or so between the three. Within those flights, I can't recall any radio issues.

Thanks Im not an every day flier but like what i hear about 2.4 but not ready to shell money for a new transmitter if I don't have to. I have a 9Ca that I like and like the idea of converting it to 2.4.

Here's a few shots of it. Awesome little plane, but my mini servos started giving me troubles and I haven't had the extra funds to replace them yet. So, I've ended up stripping parts for another profile I'm rebuilding.
