RE: ESM F4U Build
The flaps work well with a standard servo. they are very well engineered any have no binding. Im very pleased !
I did a taxi test yesterday and am very pleased with that also. The aerovate 26 runs very well. using a Xoar 17x8 - 1500 to 7400rpm. I have about 25 minutes run time.
I also tryed a 3 blade Master Airscrew 16x10 - 1400 to 6900 rpm. Both props seem to produce ample pull. I intend to use the 2 blade 17-8 on the first flight. Forcast wind today are 30 to70 mph, so it'll be a few days in the future.
Home depot did a match on the Gray paint , it isn't perfect( i think its about 10% too much green), but its close.
