ok...when my new parts come I'll try it...I'll watch Range. Unfortunatly, the piece of wire was lost...I'll be operating with just the wire that runs the length of the boom--the "extra" hanging out the back was lost, as well as 1/2" inside the boom.

Thanks so much for the help RCuniverse users.....

As a foot note, I fouind my plane crashes on its maiden--didn't have the wings flush with the fuse.

But this hobby is soooooo much fun, I look forward to getting my parts and getting back in the air.
