Default RE: Tribute 36 by Hangar 9, anyone?

I've been flying mine with a Saito 50 up front, enough power, but not ballistic. Also, had to grind away a good bit of wood to get it to fit. Prop clearance is fine with a 12/5, but the landing gear is pretty weak. Starts to give way after several quite acceptably smooth landings. I went with high torque metal gear mini servos since I had some, so that means supplied control rods weren't quite long enough, so I'm switching out for graphite as well.

Hovers easy enough, the rest I'm working on.

Regards, from VA
