Well I have been working on my wing covering this weekend, and as I was getting ready to cover the bottom of the left wing I thought I would go ahead and set up the aileron servo installation only to discover a small problem.
PS- I also laid out and cut out the fuselage sides for a Taurus. It gives me something to do while waiting for glue to set up on the Simla.
Bill,
Thanks; I'll look out for this.
Starting another pattern plane because the thin CA just takes too long to cure? More and more I'm liking my idea of flying you out here.
BTW, I got the parts and made a copy of your stand yesterday. You're right; that support piece is a witch to get right. Of course, if I had applied a little elementary geometry to my measurements, I should have come closer to what was needed.
And if I were to do it again, I'd use the 2-inch PVC like you did, instead of the 1.5-inch. Actually, the 1.5-inch would work well for all sections *except* the vertical column which needs to be pretty sturdy.
Cheers,
Richard
