Hey rcflyguy
Was that a kit or an arf, a friend just got the arf and it is set up with ca hinges. I didn't think you could use ca hinges on surfaces that large.
Yours looks good!

Thanks
Doug

As winter approaches, I get lower.

unversalrc,
OK you know who I am... hummmm... OK I give who are you? I could guess, but I don't want to offend! (Ron Gray )

Stomper,
This is the kit. I would, however, tell your friend to re hinge with the big kleet or dubro hinges. CA hinges will snap after awhile. It has happened to me only once. After that I never used them.

Ron Grey use a computer???? No Way!! Now think about who at Universal RC that can hover..... Who flew a Heli with your Dad over 25 years ago.... Who flew a Magic at Tiffin with you...Enough hints?


Good luck with tail-touching... I hope to get to Hover with you at the field soon.

I've got my TopCat down to 5 feet but I have a lot less in it as you do with your edge.

Later,

Good pics. I don't think I would have the stones to put one that big that close to the ground. Great job.
