Default RE: Mid Star 40 Build Thread

Looking good! You might want to think about shorting the wing so you can get a better roll rate, and increase the size of the rudder. It is a popular mod with the 4 star and if I were to do it over, thats what I would do. I do not like the single servo for the ailerons. They are long so you do not get good deflection at the tips. I got 1.25 aileron stock and changed them out, and it helps, but a dual servo set up would be best. Here are some pics of mine. This was the first time using a neon color and I would not recommend them. I found that the neon did not shrink as much as the blue. This made the compound corners very difficult.

Good luck[img][/img][img][/img]
