Default RE: Another Ziroli DC 3 to be built...

hello dc 3 guys!!!<div>Im in the process of finishing a golden age dc3 which is similar in size to ziroli dc3. Almost everything is the same except this came with a composite fuselage and wing center section.</div><div>I just wana ask the guys who has flown this,what is the recommended cg location. I purchased this one partially built and didnt come with plans or any build instruction whatsoever.</div><div>Suggestions are all welcome. Thanks much in advance.</div><div></div><div>Re tailwheel lock- the lock limits the travel to a minimum but not necessarily "locked". They still react when you're kicking rudder as u gracefully scream along the runway for take off. Its like similar to dual rates on rc so we can just set it on low for take off and landing and set to max for taxiing.</div><div></div><div>Re tailwheel, i have purchased a similar looking trailing link landing gear. Its not expensive so it saves a lot of time.</div><div></div><div>Great advice on the flap servos by the way. assymetrical drag if a servo fails would be disastrous</div>
