Default RE: Phoenix Models Super Decathlon ???

Thanks Fastsky for taking the time to answer my questions.

I realize that the aileron extensions and Y exit inside the fuse. I just didn't want them to be easily seen. So, I thought about taping them to the bottom of the wing running aft and bring them down at the rear of the cockpit to the radio. I used heat shrink tubing around the connections between the Y and the servo leads. That should hold them with no problem.

Did you fill in the area under the landing gear attachment point? It looks kinda funky the way it is. Did you add the black stripes down the fuse?

I've been flying tail draggers for a couple of years and find that applying throttle gently until the tail wants to come up is best. Up to that point I've held full up elevator so that the tail wheel is effective. Works for me!

Thanks again.

Phil
