RE: Vectorflight Edge 540 build
I hear ya on the landing gear and CG. I think my buddy printed up those suggestions from those threads.
That's not much expo you have. I have -15% set for my high rates on my 7CAP for my planes, but guys I fly with say that's not much....oh well, still learning to use it (my first computer radio, and I love it).
I was almost finished with the balsa fairing I was making it when my buddy came over and decided he wanted to use the supplied plastic one....oh well, it's his plane. So I just rough sanded it down more so it will fit inside of the plastic...still a nice tight fit so it's solid as a rock. Don't think it will add that much weight by leaving it that size....I took two pics (below) to show ya'll. Also took two pics of the syringe for the CA hinges. They might be too close up to tell much....let me know.
On another note, aren't you supposed to have the metal inserts on the top side of the rubber groumets (the screw side) of your servos, so the bottom side of the rubber groumets touches the servo tray? I always thought that would give it better vibration protection, but my buddy has his the opposite...any thoughts will be appreciated....
Thanks,
B
