Default RE: Goose's Aeroworks ProX260 build thread

Well I'm gonna call that finished

A couple of hours tonight saw:

Pic 1: The electronics squared away and working. I did have to move the battery packs to balance the plane but didn't add any weight. Notice the slick Miracle switch.
Pic 2: Revised the muffler restraint including protecting everything with silicone rubber sheet.
Pic 3: Hanging on a balance jig with no additional weight.
Pic 4: Done.

Ready to fly weight is 3.5kg (7.6lbs).

I'm really happy with the setup too, mechanically and electronically everything is exactly how I wanted it. I programmed triple rates on my 12z and included various expo's depending on the rate.

Tomorrow I will run the engine up and give it a tune on the ground and maiden it this weekend.

Thanks for following along and offering your comments and encouragement.

Cheers

Goose
