The Hyde distances and dimensions etc. fitted with no modifications. I went for the rudder servo in the back again. It just seems to save weight and allows the battery to be what is moved to suit my CG. needs.

I did put some lite-ply on the sides behind the firewall. Habit I guess ;-)

I was also given a tip by George Asteris. He told me to lay a 3" wide piece of 20 oz cloth inside the fuselage, down one side, across the landing gear ply-plate and then up the other side. He has built around 12 of these planes and he says that the landing gear plate won't pull out if you do this.

Eric.
