I am still going between the two airplanes. The nice thing about the Escapade is cost, it can't be beat. The other thing which brings me to this is that it is all pre-hinged. I don't know if I am making to big of a deal, but hinging is one thing I am not looking forward to doing one day! With any plane, I would use 2 aileron servos (HAN S300, the stock on the Alpha 40) and Futaba S128s for everything else. On the AR500 receiver, there are two aileron ports. If I use the flaperon wing setting on my 8103, would that use both of those ports. In the Escapade manual, it asks for a dual servo extension, I wouldn't need that then, right? Could I then bump up the two aileron extensions from a 6" to a 12"? Or is that extension for the elevator and rudder? Thanks.
