Default RE: Redesign/build FEJ


ORIGINAL: Ali

I have around 20 flights Dantley, and I would not call them gentle. Sure they are not fast but I have been pulling it hard. I think the pull 45 half roll and then full up half reverse to exit positive AOA high alpha is far from gentle. Especially for a big old bird like the 16. However.. and here is the however... I am not 100% in love with the direct control system. It works, and has been working.. I just feel that there is potential for movement ( In the servo arm and then in the servo mount itself )
Regards Al
Ali- my buddy binson was thinking the same thing. he thought the direct drive system is fine but will develop slop over time. he was thinking once the movement start he would line the hole with some type of metal to prevent the slop.

i look foward to your mod.

i cut out these pattern and was thinking of gluing to make the rear end stronger. i will upload pics in a few.
