The latest lock-down/meltdown in the U.K. has given me a chance to get back on the Evo. As my last UF I am using an Intairco 1” arm for the rudder. Finding the arm position used my usual nylon arm scratch tool. Operate the servo with a tester and it cuts the foam. You can just see the marks near the black pen. The hole is started with a Dremel tool and then finished with a Permagrit file set.
I also started mapping out the turbine install. Initially I was going to glue plywood bearers to reduce the width...then I realised the tailcone would not slide past 🙂
So thin G-10 plates will be mounted to the turbine strap and then screwed to the turbine rails.
