Default RE: Lanier Comet .40

Okay.

I have gotten the wings togethber after sanding the dihedral out (the comet was designed for dihedral), I decided to strip away the dihedral and find out what the think symetrical airfols will do. I may put alittle anhedral in this bugger and see what I get.

I also have the balsa strips glued into thier slots using epoxy nd waiting for it to harden before I continue.

I am a little hesitant on installing all my gear until I get a good CG reference. I would much rather atach my radio and engine one at a time to ensure I acheive the goal cg. Nothinh worse than having to dismount my servos/batt/rx to meet CG reqs. I'm keeping my options open for tail-mounted gear.

I have a couple of HB .61's i'm eyeballing if anyone has any info on these engines.


BTW.... Anyone have a specific brand name of foam whjixh will not add too much weight, or explode through my fuse????
