Thanks for the advice. The plan specifies '' no thrust'', however, flying instructions state that the plane will wander to the left on take off roll.
Also states right rudder is necessary.
I plan to build with 2 degrees rt. thrust[easy fix if this is not good idea] and 0 degrees down thrust. Also easy to correct.
I also am thinking of mounting 60tt on a 45 degree angle rather than straight vertical.
Definitely tail dragger [Dubro hd main gear], just haven't a method of mounting with gear raked back to put axle in line with the leading edge.
Got to get through ''deer season''before building this bird. ps the original HOG called for 4 degrees rt. thrust. Fredsedno
You're right, your thrust corrections can be easily modified. Keep in mind the original Astro-Hog was quite different from the Sig version. I believe it was Flair (UK) that last put one out. It was a much lighter planes (.40 2 stroke) and I believe both the wings and stab were held on with rubber bands with the stab much lower than it is now. At any rate, use caution when transferring data from the original to the Sig.
Good luck!
