1/2a Mini Bell questions
Hello, I have some questions about the mini bell. My first question is what functions does this airplane use? The box says 2-3 chanels. I know it uses elevator, but I dont know if it uses rudder, or aileron for turning, and I don't know if it uses a throttle, considering it only uses .020 engines. My second question, on the box i see it has a tricycle landing gear. Does this mean that the plane has a steerable nosewheel? IF anyone built this kit, can you please help me out? Thanks.

RE: 1/2a Mini Bell questions
The plane was originally designed for two channels - rudder and elevator. Using a small set of servos and receiver, you could very easily add ailerons and a throttle.
I had one on which I used rudder, elevator and a throttled Cox TD .020. It was fast, but fun! I've got one in the box right now in which I'll also use ailerons.
