It is very important that this be done with great care and is alighned straight in every angle.
Still working on mine, and the wing (premounted) is not perpendicular to the vertical stab. This cannot be fixed without some major surgery. My choice was to mount the stab parallel to the wing, or perpendicular to the fin, or I could test Aeroworks return policy. I decided to go parallel to the wing.
Another gripe I have is that there is no cooling air
outlet and I am having to cut holes in the belly pan under the wing for this.
I thought thet the wire elevator joiner was a bit flexy, so I mounted the elev. servo under the canopy, and used a forked pustrod, and ommited the wire.
Finish is reasonably good, and the warpage in one elevator half was small enough that I could iron it out.
Overall quality is about average for this class of ARF. My next plane will be a scratch built Yak, since I have found it next to impossible to find a perfectly straigt ARF.
