Default RE: Transall C-160

Hey Codimasta,

Congrats on the maiden flight. I finally got my C-160 (camo) in today and starting on the wing sections. I am putting in ultra-bright white L.E.D's for landing lights, wingtip lights, and releases for drop tanks or "other devices". I also will be putting in a working cargo ramp for aerial drops. I am working on an active method of changing the C.G. in flight to allow for up to a pound of simulated cargo to be released. This is going to be a fun project for sure. I was flying a C-47 (Polk Hobby) today re-motored to brushless turning 3-blade 8x6 with Aveox motors, a very huge difference over the "barely clears the ground" stock brushed setup. The C-160 probably will become my favorite, from all I have been reading in this thread.

Again, great job!

Best regards,

Edd Spidell
