RE: Pilot RC 30cc sbach 342 build thread
Alright gents tomorrow is the big day, weather permitting anyways. Everything went very smothly on the build. I only have2 complaints about the entire experience.
1. Chiefs customer service was a little on the crappy side. It took me almost 30 min of arguing with the guy on the phone to convince him that I had checked every possible square inch of the boxes and the lanfing gear wasnt in there before they agreed to send me the gear.
2. The attatchment for the rear wheel is crap. Its a cheap spring that doesnt seem like its gonna hold up so I am currently working on an alternative means to attatch it. For now Im just gonna let it free wheel.
Other than that, Great plane and very easy to assemble.
I am taking her out for the maiden tomorrow and have started my CG out at the center of the wing tube which took me adding 3oz of weight to the nose. We will see how she does and I will post up the report tomorrow evening...
Happy flying and good luck out there
