Default RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

Yes good point on the OS 55 ax and 46 ax they both have the same foot print .. I like to use the ail torque rods for flaps and then put two servos in the wings for the ailerons...Although I have never had a flutter problem with my Tigers I think as thailazer says if we push the limits on power we could run into problems like flutter...We had a Tower hobbies Trainer ( about 60" ws ) doing its maiden at our field on the weekend and the pilot flying it did a big loop He didn't power back enough and all of a sudden we heard the dreadded burrr of a flutter...Fortunatly He came out of it with no damage ....The Motor on this plane had a purple head and looked to be about .45 to .50 .
