Dan,

I heard that bum is on vacation on a small island 🏝 with hardly any Internet Access. Glad someone stepped up and help you while he is gone. I will make sure Carrie has a copy too now.

I finally got around to completing and flying mine which I have put about 9 flights on her. My nose gear door struggles to open up all the way so and takes several cycles in the air to get it to retract so I had no choice but to take off the nose gear doors today while looking her over. I'm pretty sure I need to replace the nose gear door servo with the dual-arm I noticed that one part of the arm where the push rod goes through finally split and I'm sure this happened due to the jet builder made the servo arm hole slightly bigger than what was needed so the arm split down the middle.

Andrew,
The photos of final approach are awesome. What was your take off weight?
Thanks,
Jim

I'm pretty sure it's about 22 pounds, the plane with turbine, batteries and full UAT is around 8500 grams plus around 3.5 pounds of fuel.

I recently got the T-45. I took the tanks out to put safety wires and didn't mark what went where. This is my first time using 2 tanks. Is this drawing how the plumbing should be?

I am moving the UAT to the top of equipment tray.

That's correct.

Hi all, do you think this T45 would fly out of semi smooth / rough grass runway?

thank you.

The bottom gear doors may not like it

Are you guys using any elevator mix with flaps? If so, up or down?

andrewjet

My Feedback: (16)

Absolutely not! It's not needed. I had absolutely no trim at all, not even one click. I'm on high rates and after the first half lap, I realized that everything was right on point so I took my right hands off the controls and she was straight as an arrow and I started my maneuvers and never looked back.

DUCMOZ

thank you. Mostly I was concerned about the great mounts rather than the gear doors.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Reading the manual, it says: "The strut bar show below has to be removed in order to have functional landing gear and should only be used for static displays if needed". Are you guys removing them for flight? It doesn't seem to interfere with retract operation.

I removed them on mine I notice they didn't slide smoothly one tube being in the other sometimes while cycling my gear they didn't go up also when flying the wind could push on them creating friction and possibly binding for the gear not to retract....

Did you find a replacement servo for the nose doors? Mine stopped working.

I'm going to try this double servo arm by Dubro with a new HV servo. I'll let you know if this works.

Hoping to maiden my T-45 tomorrow. Is the book recommended CG of 178mm a good starting point?
