Default 1/4 scale Piper Tri-Pacer

ddubya.
sorry about the delay, just occupied and not with it,
Incidence:

I have some data from the full scale plane:

Stabilizer---1" +/- 1/2" Up

6 1/2 " +/- 1/2" Down

Ikon has it at 0 the best that I can tell.

I am into hinging and mounting the wing servos etc. presently. I spent several hours getting an aileron servo mount constructed and then it dawned on me that the same spot was where the rear strut mount had to go. Well, needless to say I wasn't a very happy camper to say the least.


Ercoupeflyr---

I got the Dave Brown wheels and they are remarkably lighter, it will take a pound off the finished bird easily. The bones of mine are now at 6 pounds.

You seem to work so fast that you probably have had yours in the air already!! If so, how does it go??

Looking for a pic of it finished. Thanks again for both of your help.

Quick question for Ercoupflyr----do you put your koverall on by doping it to the frame or do you use something like SIG stixall or balsarite?? I have always just doped it on. Art
