Speed Trainer...now thats funny.

Whats up with the clean corner in the shop???
Hey Vic...!

I converted about a 1/3 of that barn to a liveable office space. I even made a wood burning stove for back up heat. Then built a seperate garbage can room outside the building so no more stinking cans in the shop any more......!!!!

Those servo arms barely stick out of the fuselage far enough to use the outer holes of the servo arms. Back when I used a 2 channel radio, this made the set up too sensitive with no servo travel adjustment or expo. Even with a modern radio, it's better to have the servo linkage set for it's natural range of motion, but limit the elevon throw to no more than 3/16" up and 3/16" down. 3/16" control surface movement would still be pretty twitchy for a newbie at full speed.
