Thanks John and Chris

I am very particular and cautious. Have put several parts together and taken them apart again, just to check and see if I did it right.

Chris, I am building an AFR (not a RTF) I got a Futaba 7C (not the stock JR radio) I also got an OS Max .61 FX engine, (not the stock Evolution engine) I wanted the best equipment. That's funny though, Evolution states their .61 engine for the Alpha 60 is factory run (break in) and adjusted so as not to cause new pilots an problems.

Well, I took my soon to be instructors advise and bought Futaba and OS to go with my Alpha 60, I'm glade I did.

I still have several things to complete before the maiden flight. Two of which were mentioned by Chris CG and prop balance (I had them on my to do list before my first post) but thanks for your imput.

Right now, only two things need work; linkage/servo adjustments, I've got a little buzzing in the throttle and the rudder/nose gear servo's.

I have set the plane up for medium response to begin with, center holes on rudder,elevator and aileron servo arms and control horns. The nose gear linkage, I left with the most travel. Not sure where the throttle linkage will end up, where ever it's not buzzing and gives me full range of throttle control, right now that seems to like less travel, but I don't like the bend it puts in the linkage.

Oh well, thanks for all the help, before and now.
