RE: Space Shuttle Depron RC Model - Scratch..

Some detail as to where I placed those EM-Sport 2200's inside the FUSE, I believe that it was just too much nose heavy so, I moved them almost 2 inches rearward from where they are shown in this picture!

I had some distasteful swaying of the Main Gear and noticed that the securing screws were not screwed in all the way. I replaced the screws to the next slightly higher size and opened up the hole size for the Control Horn acting as my hold down clamp and pre-drilled into the plywood mount. Using smaller washers allowed for additional downward pressure on the nylon control horn section and thereby the main landing gear is nicely secured.

To reduced the swaying of the model sideways back and forth, I developed a wire brace and worked like a charm!

New batteries fully charged to 8.43 Volts each pack!
