Default RE: The new Lanier Edge 87"

Ok, Here are more pictures

Pic 1. This is how I decide to mount the throttle servo. Just epoxy 2 x 3/8 square popplar to the front of the box. If I need more nose weight, I can add another 1.5-2 Oz in the form of a choke servo.

Pic 2. Fuel tank floor glued. I'm using my old H9 Extra tank which survived the crash just fine. The rear of the floor is resting on a former, and I added a triangular stock at the bottom of the front part of the floor. The floor and velcro comes with the kit. With a little sanding, it fits just fine.

Pic 3. Overall view of the tank + rudder assy

Pic 4. My pull pull assy. using basswood 1" x 1/4" thick in a criss cross manner. I am using a tiller also to decrease the overal tension on the servo itself (and supposedly prolong the bearing assy). The whole thing is solid, and centers perfectly. I'm really going to like the HS5995 TG: fast and precise. I think I will eventually mount the receiver just posterior to the tiller arm. By crossing it, I managed not to get it to snag in any of the formers posteriorly. Pretty good for the first shot

Pic 5. My restless DA itching to power its new host.
