Hi Krosst , Donniercjet , beef

Hello Gentlemen

I ve been following this thread for a couple of weeks now , and it is most interresting . I like the difference between the two rudders .
Krossk is right , Donniercjet you have a very interresting idea for the retracts , makeing it a tail dragger with the retracts torward the front of the wing , great thougths

If I may , I would like to tell you about my Tiger 60 , although I must tell you now that I am not as airplane oriented as you guys are , I m more of the mechanic type , so if you would bare with me .

As you have read in the past , I m putting in an OS-90 SF , the engine is the same weight as the OS60 . I ve also added 1/4 inch ply to the fire wall to give it more strength I ve set up my retracts as per the instructions . The only other change that I have made is my nose gear streering is on a seperate sevo , mixed in by the transmitter on a toggel switch ( this was done so that I could learn how to mix with my radio ) on my 9 CAP . One other change that I have made is that I have put on flaps ( one sevo per flap ) . I know that reading this thread that it might be a mistake , but again this was done so that I can learn how to use them , but they will be very small flaps I ve also added nylon wing bolts , like the thread suggusted . I liked the idea of the two wing pins , it looks more solid . I ve also thought about the tail end and adding some more strength to it . I will add tri-stock to support the stab to the rudder and round it off so that it has a more of a stream line look , and it should add the support that you have been speaking of .

The airframe now has two coats of nitrate on it as it will be covered in Koveral and dope . I only have a few days left to make a dicicion on the rudder and the stabalizer , if I want to modify , as you gents have done , its not too late to make the changes . Fore sure you guys think that it is worth it . I ll never be a good acrobatic pilot , I just need to learn good orientation with my radio and plane

Sorry I cann t put in pictures I don t have the computer capibilaty ( but wish I did )

Great thread Krossk , thanks for letting me in

Thanks
