DA 70 on this plane is a beautiful match. I have plenty of power on stock JTec in cowls.

Well, after much thought and consideration I bought myself one of these birds! It's a used one with 30 flights on it, setup with DA 70 and ES pipes. It has Savox 1270s on all control surfaces and a 1256, I believe, on the throttle. Really looking looking forward to picking it up next Saturday.
Thoughts or suggestions on the setup? Things I should check with it being a used airframe?

I've been setting the throws up and getting the geometry right on this plane I picked up yesterday.
What kind of expo are most of you running on 3D rates? Low rates?
I'm getting 60° out of the ailerons and elevator, and about 45° on the rudder. The lines are crossed on the pull pull cables. Is this right? They seem to be snug when centered but loosen up at full deflection. This tells me the geometry is messy up somewhere.

About 40% expo, and bevel to bevel throws. No need for low and medium rates. ;-)
And it's fairly common, on my planes anyway, for the pull-pull cables to slacken up some at full deflection .

I do have low and medium rates on some of my planes. Other people fly them occasionally, and stop to stop throws weird them out .

Are your rudder cables crossed?

Rudder cables are crossed on all my planes, including my 91 yak and Im in the middle of a 91 extra build now and they will also be crossed.
