New Twisted Hobbies Crack Fokker

[ericb]

Kinda skipping around til I get the rest of the servos. Pre building sections so I'll be able to get it together faster

That is a great way to do it.

Fokker.... Build faster!!!

I'm Fokkering building as fast as I can!!!!....LOL Didn't get my goodies from TH today, but I suspect I will get them Monday.

I have made some really good progress tho, but getting close to where I'm gonna need the elevator and rudder servos before I can continue.

I didn't have much time to work on mine today. Spent most of the day with family functions. But I did squeak in a little time on it this evening. Maybe I can get it finished up tomorrow.

Well....I guess I was going to fast!, was going to test the aileron servos/throws and stupid me was connecting a battery with a JST plug directly to the receiver and stuck it on the wrong posts, crossed the signal and positive terminals.......smoked (literally) a $20.00 receiver and 2 Futaba servos that were $40.00 each, so there goes a hundred dollar bill.

Guessing next time I will put an esc in the mix to avoid that again!!

Been there done that. But it was $5 worth of servos for me. Sucks no matter the amount.

Wasn't as bad as I thought getting the servos out without damaging the plane....they are out

Now I gotta make a run and go see @pawnshopmike to get more servos
