Default New Hog Bipe

You did a beautiful job, sir! I'm impressed. I love the Hog, but mine plowed in kind of hard last summer... Came out of a split "S" at 10 ft coming at me. No perspective on speed and it bellied in pretty hard. Enough to warrant a maj. reworking of most of the plane. I think mine was about 10-12 yrs old, though, and I'm about the 6th owner. Found it on Fubar Hill site after I bought it, the original owner apparently was in Florida. I like your wing mounted servos. I put 2 HS300's in mine at the start, but mine were center mounted as per plans. I did put 605 BB servos on rud/elev, though. May do a pull pull rudder after the rework. I'm also making the rudder a little larger, the original size was kind of ineffective. It'll be about 10% larger. Should chuck it around pretty nicely with that! Once again, good job. You should (and probably are) proud. Craftsmen are to be applauded!
