Default U Can Do 3D

Just finished building my UCD. Will fly this weekend.

SPECS
Engine : Saito 100 w/cline regulator
Prop : APC 15x6
Fuel : Cool power 10%
RPM : 9300 (flying mixture)
Battery: 1650 NiMH
Servos : All JR DS368's except rudder (DS9411)
Weight : 7.0 lb dry
CG : ~5 1/8 back from LE
Modifications :

o Didn't install wheel pants or belly pan (belly pan installation with 5 min. epoxy to monocote would fall off in 10 flights)

o 4-40 hardware except 2-56 throttle. Rudder pushrod is CF.

o Fuel tank moved over CG. I tried it out and the cline regulator is great! I can hold the plane at idle, half, or full throttle nose straight up for 20 seconds and the RPM's remain exactly the same as with the plane sitting.

o Nylon hinges on the ailerons

o Aluminum spinner
