I have the YS 63 on a 13 x 6 apc, the servos are hitecs 525mg ailerons and 605 for rudder and elevator. The 6" pitch alows me to fly like a patern ship with the 3d stuff mixed in. 13 x 4W for slow stuff.

Cheers

I am building a Seduction Fun-Fly at the moment and plan to use an OS46FX for power. Is anyone out there flying this combination. I am especially interested to find out where the C.G. would be with this combo as I would hate to add any extra nose or tail weight. The quality of parts is superb indeed. I hope it will fly as well too. Intend to use Hitec mini micro 225s for the ailerons and Hitec micro 235 for throttle.

The Hitec 225s are perfect and HS 85 for throttle. Im using them on the seduction FS.

I've been building my seduction freestyle for 3 months on and off and should have it finish in a couple of weeks. Can either of you post some pictures of your finished plane (Inside and out) so i can get some ideas.

PS i can't work out the idea on the plastic piece around the undercarriage.

I'm going to be using an irvine 53 with an APC 12.25x3.75 prop.

Here is a pic of my second seduction. The plastic piece is supposed to keep oil and dirt out from that area but I dont know why anyone would want to do that. I have left it out on both seductions.

Look forward to your photos.

Surrey3styla,

Got your pics. I thought the tank was meant to go up front, but will try the middle for CG balance. Last night i was shaping the wings and i started to sand the leading edge before putting the extra strip on. What a bummer, there's going to be a line of filler now.

I like the idea of strengthening the tail sections as these things alway twist when covering.

SERVOS

Not sure yet. I've got about 20 spare 148's, so unless i can decide i'll test it on them and replace later on. What are you using?

Surrey3styla,
What did you use to tint the blue canopy, or is it an Ono?

I've tried dylon (fabric dye) before and got mixed results. You leave it in a bucket for 3 days and for me it wasn't bad but a friend of mine got a perfect transparent purple.

sounds good neil but slightly more hassle than just a spray can,how do you apply it when its ready?what do you mix it with.
