RE: OutLaw build review
All the three pieces that form the vertical stab (bottom, top rear and forward top) all had to be trimmed for fit. The bottom stab was first and was shaped to match the bottom curve. The top rear stab was filed to remove the laser burn and to let it seat deeper so that drops all the way down the slot to touch the bottom sheeting for strength. The forward stab on the main hatch was lowered the most with about 1/8” removed from the bottom so that its top edge blends in to the stab to the rear of it.
The slots for all the CA hinges were perfectly centered, spaced and the correct depths. If the recommended servos are used they will fit perfectly with no modifications at all. The slots on top of the wing did need to be elongated a bit and the recommended Du-bro’s super strength long servo arms worked fine. I did a little extra work to throttle servo mounting adaptor provided. The mounting holes were first drilled into the adaptor, and then it was held into place to mark were the screws would enter the side of the compartment. Those four marks were slotted so the mounting screws can pass through. The adaptor was glued into position and the servo was than installed using four flanged self tapping socket head cap screws, this is so you can get at them with a ball drive.
