Default RE: Chip Hyde's Cap-X - Building & Flying

I too would like info on perry pump install.Like how many lines and were to.
Flew my cap x this weekend four flights all went bad.Went dead stick and all I can say is wow.
All dead sticks were from my muffler coming off,any help would be nice.I have loctited the bolt
let set 24 hours and they still fell out.

Anyway back to the plane,Man what an amazing aircraft.On my first flight I was doing rolling circles.And I have only done this on a simulator. Muffler fell off and "oh ####" I was down
wind.I thought here comes the tip stall,But no that was not to be it just glided in and set right in to a three point landing.And this was all four times.
This plane is way over powered with the moki 1.80 on it.Totally unlimited vertical,beautiful
knife edge,a little belly pitch but it can be mixed out. Tracks like it is on rails.
I will have one for a back up. Chip has got a winner here with this plane.

Anyway here is what i have in mine
Futaba
3305 on rudder and wings
3010 on elevators
1200 mah battery
moki 1.80
bisson pitts muffler
balanced perfect no weight
Will install perry pump and 20 oz. tank no other mods.
