Default Update on Creek Extra

Thanks, Jim!

I guess we could also cross the cables which might help. I think putting them in tubes is a good choice, but if they still have to make that bend, it's gonna be a spot that would rub.

Being the expert builder that I am (ha!) I would think it should be a straight shot. Drilling a hole in the former is probably the best idea. I better check mine. I don't think "in-flight" is the best time to find out a kevlar rudder pull-pull string broke because it was rubbing.

Thanks for the pic! And thanks Krazy for the measurements. I mounted mine with the center 50mm from the top. I guess that's why mine is mounted lower than yours.

Also, I have the square tip Zinger on mine now. I had planned on using it until I figured out my engine situation. No sense in putting a $37 CF prop and deadsticking in and possibly ruining it. I have two CF's and an APC to try. I am going to get the Pro Zinger also.

Later guys.
