RE: New Decathlons From Seagull 91 and 120 Size!
The fuselage is sheeted partially. It’s a stock one. I found out that the stock cowl was not painted properly; the black strips could not be aligned to the fuselage strips. After repainting (now the cowl has no red on it, I’m waiting for the Oracover red paint from Austria), I decided to change black strips to make the plane more attractive.
Other mods.
The push rods are carbon fiber 2.5mm rods. J-B weld was used to attach the clevises to the rods.
An elevator and rudder horns was also replaced. The stock elevator horns are too visible. Now nothing is visible from the top of the elevator.
I also decided to make a smoke system. The Sky-Writer is overpriced. Why to pay $80 for brushed ESC which is in the Sky-Writer? I bought the Sullivan oil pump $20 + $9 brushed ESK. I don’t calculate the Opto-Isolator because it needs to be installed with the stock Sky-Writer as well – glitches. The smoke system battery – 2S LiPo 800 ma/hr
