Default RE: T-28 Dave Platt

Dean,

How did you do the dive brake, canopy and how did you hinge your control surfaces. I'm starting on my Dave Platt 1/6th scale this weekend.How much did it weigh. Did you add any right trust. Platt does not call for it, but plenty of down thrust. I measured at least 5 degrees. How did you compensate for the short nose moment. I built the Pica T-28 and had to add 1 1/2 to 2 lbs nose weight. I really don't want to add weight if I don't have to.

Boyd.
