Just think of it Kelly. Though you've had to make some revisions and updates, once done you'll know she ain't gonna fall apart in the sky. That's a good thing. I am however holding my breath she doesn't get a taste of the starting table blues such as a certain Pilot Edge that shall remain nameless. Ooops, I mentioned it didn't I?

:lol2:

LoL.....Funny thing you mention that because every "wise guy" at the field mentions it too when I am first setting up my plane for the day :laughing:.

Almost there! The new bores lined up the rudder way better than the factory ones. This could be a part of what caused the right thrust issue. I did not add the additional hinges. Four Robarts is plenty. These Robart hinges are much better quality. Just got to get a couple more servos swapped out for some "kick ass" H50B's and fix my choke lever. Saturday is looking really good to check the new servos out :).

Got 3 short flights on it and it is TAIL HEAVY. <that's not yelling.....It's heavier letters> Mr. Rocket scientist forgot to take in to account the heavier servos. But all is well. Because I had this when I got home.....

Got the shop full. A "tweek needed here an overhaul there". Some assembly here box opening there.

Going to seal the rudder hinge line and repair the tail wheel. Think I am going to double the tank size to aid in the cg issue (tail heavy) . Battery is already as far forward in the pipe tunnel as can be. Smoke system crossed my mind to but the mess reminded me not to do it.
