Default RE: Hanger 9 Tango

I have some building tips for the tail assembly.

I had to take the vertical and horizontal back off to install the servos, so I recommend installing the servos in the tail FIRST, then install the horizontal and vertical. Makes for drilling and screwing much easier as you need to access this area without the horizontal in the way. It was also easier to feed the cables up the tail without the horizontal on.

Also, when installing the electric motor, I had to clear drill the holes in the Power 46 X-mount for the #6 screws included in the Tango to mount the motor.

I hope these help. But so far the ARF is very well put together. All glue joints are strong, and hinges are perfectly installed. I can't wait to fly it!
