Hi Guys, count me in on this thread. I bought one today from a friend but it's a bit sad.
The method he used for mounting the retracts has not worked so everything is loose, top sheeting is split, the tailplane has had the film burnt off it, the canopy is broken and the fuselage has cracks in it & the paint is scratched on the nose.
What the realestate guys would call a Fixer - upper I suppose!
115 pages, looks like I have a lot of reading to catch up on!
Are the instructions that came with the model available as a download? If not, clues for control throws & CG? - John.
CG should be around 10.3" behind the wing leading edge at the fuse.
Manual recommended control throws are:
Elevator - 15mm up and down
Ailerons - 25mm up and down
Rudders - 10mm left and right
My personal settings are:
Elevator - low rate 15mm, high rate 25mm (for landing)
Ailerons - 15mm (25mm is way too much)
Rudders - 15mm
Good luck on the rebuild.
