Default RE: Hobby Lobby 50" Tigermoth

Today, I put the tail surfaces onto the model (maybe some pix later) and started on the ailerons. First the pull-pull linkages had to be attached and adjusted. In this respect, the thing went together pretty well. One expects to fiddle with this stuff to get it right. The pull-pull are all steel wires so I hope the radio reception isn't an issue.
Tomorrow I will drag out the camera and shoot some images to post so you-all can see the progress.
I work slow so the wings should be done in another 3 hours or so. I bought some sermax and GWS connectors, soldered them up and charged up the lipo with the new rig. When the plane is together, I will be able to drive over to the local electric field and try it out.
