Status: offline 		Dave I noticed the dihedral was gone right away. I was assuming you must have ailerons rigged to make it work.

Can you share your tricks for rigging the ailerons on this one?

Looks GREAT!

Status: offline 		Aileron servo is mounted just below the middle wing. The fishing line is directed (just past full throw) upward through a bit of 1/64 plywood vertically to the top wing where it runs through guides. Elevator/Rudder are attached to belcranks driven by the servo. A couple of pictures to illustrate.
