RE: First Gas Plane Help

to afford you better understanding, servo torque is not the only consideration. The re-centering...

RE: H9 Extra 260 35% Servos etc?

What wasn't said about the 5625s is that they are not known for good centering when you go neutral on your sticks.

RE: New to gas/giant scale

Use Metal Geared Servos and it would be smart to buy higher torque producing servos, as you may want
to go larger in airplane size later. On wings longer than 40 inches each half, two servos will...

You didn't mention the cg location. If it is at or very close to recommended, your trim corrections

RE: Differnce between Extra 300 and extra 260?

The difference between the 260 and 300 are engine horse power.. the 260 has a shorter cockpit area, and thus a shorter
