Default RE: Senior Telemaster info

I've built the senior and am now building the giant. Do the bolt on wing mod and you will for sure need to do something with the gear. I put a bomb bay in mine and the landing gear repeatdly bent. Get a a good 3/16's aluminum gear. I've put 3lbs in my Senior and it didn't seem to notice it much with a OS61 for power. My kit built suffered the broken wing and stab problem mentioned in several topics. I think if you are using it as a lift you might consider adding support for the wings and beefing up the stab. Mine folded when pulling out of a sharp dive. The kit built plane has no struts, next time I'd add them.

BTW, the Giant has a bomb bay of 18 X 6 X 6 with room for the servos above the bomb bay area.
Thanks, Jerry
