Default RE: Goose's Aeroworks ProX260 build thread

Day 1 continued...

Pic 1: AW hardware is all excellent however the supplied Phillips head screws for the horns are soft and one stripped while I was installing it. I replaced them with 2-56 cap screws (RTL fasteners)
Pic 2: I used the servo horn and ball links from my Ultimate along with the supplied 4-40 pushrods and metal clevises. I put the side force generators on to help set the pushrod lengths per the kit addendum.
Pic 3: Check out the depth of the wing airfoil, its 74mm thick!
Pic 4: The DLE-20 out of the box doesn't fit in the fuselage and my kit didn't have the DLE-20 install templates so thats the next job.

Also the throttle servo cutout in the fuselage is only 22x12mm, way too small for anything I have in stock so I will have to pick up something that fits tomorrow.

Thats it for tonight.

Cheers

Goose
