Now that I got both of my brothers E-Flite 1.2 m Turbo Otter's done. I started on the Free Wing F-86 Sabre 64 mm EDF tonight. I just stop to see what time it is 1:00 am staying up to get the tail surfaces glued on it is time to hit the Sack LOL!!!!

finally! after getting the Tail feathers on the F-86 Sabre, 4:00 am slept until 8 and started on getting the wing halves glued together I noticed that there are wholes in the wing halves to add a center tube but supplied in the kit so I made one out of some Carbon Fiber rod just the right size. The little wing tube I made will add in wing halve alignment so that the wing tip incidents is the same. wing is glued together and setting up going to finish it today, bad weather wind 20 to 30 gust over 45 mph tomorrow's forecast here in the Black hills 65 degrees sunny and 5 to 10 mph. Headed out to fly a bunch of planes with a few other guys

Well here it is again, 4:00 AM. I just finished up putting the little F-86 Sabre together. The drop tanks were just to plane Jane all Silver. so I added a little paint and pin stripping LOL!!! two more decals to add. just done the programming and it is almost ready to fly

More progress. Got the main spar notch cut and the spar glued in. Also might have gone slightly overboard using the router attachment for the dremel to put pockets in the surface of the wing for the servos to recess down into. Finally got the bottom vertical fuse piece glued for good.

Need some help, have hanger9 ARF. It has 13 gram metal gear servo in the plane. What does that mean the 13 gram ?. And what size servo is it one thing I do know is that they are noisy , slow and analog. Would like to replace them in the near future.
Thanks

It means the servo weighs 13 grams. So look for a replacement that weighs close to 13 grams.

I like this one. It weighs 12.5 grams.
