RE: Phoenix Models Super Decathlon ???
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I anticipated that the aileron hookup would be unsightly. There has got to be a way to conceal these even if we have to tape them the the underside of the wing all the way back between the hold down bolts. My "Y" connector is plenty long to accomplish this Mickey Mouse solution!
From the pictures in the manual it looks like they are using a OS 46 LA. I suppose the muffler tucks into the already cut out portion of the fuse. I have either an OS 46 AX or a Super Tiger 46 to stuff in this plane. Either should deliver more than adequate power with either a 10 x 6 or an 11 x 7 for better vertical if needed.
Did you seal the aileron gap? It is small but could present a problem with flutter. However, at scale like speed it shouldn't be a problem.
I have heard that the ailerons give up at slow speed but that you still have rudder. Did you find it tending toward ground looping??
