RE: Shrike Build
Hi guys,
Here`s my one all finished and ready for that first flight. Midwinter down here at this time and has been raining like crazy for the past 2 days - I hope it lets up for the weekend.....
Basic details are:-
OS 10 FSR engine ( I fitted a muffler ex OS 10 FP as the pressure nipple faces the right way)
Futaba R114F Rx and 3 x S3101 servos installed.
Covering is 'Easycoat'. Underside is all dark blue to provide a contrast from the topsides. also, I ran out of yellow - it`s all leftovers from previous models.
All up weight ready to go as shown here is 26 1/2 ozs.
I had a problem trying to decide where to fit the switch and eventually settled for on top of the hatch. The hatch is screwed down at the rear otherwise I would have put it inside the fuselage.
I`ll let you know how the first flight went in due course.
