RE: Comp ARF Flash update
Flash was test flown with gear up.
I have rechecked all the control movements and found that on the ailerons I have 3-4mm more down than up (manual states 2mm more down than up), this has now been adjusted. I didn't get to fly it as I spent most of the day trying to sort out a few small problems, initially I couldn't get all the air out of the UAT, the turbine ran fine in the pits but when she was throttle up for a take off run she quit - this was due to the UAT being too level, once this was sorted she was ok. Then I found that I had an air leak , the brake line had slide around the oleo a bit and got jammed in the servo cover, cuting the line. Test flight was eventually done, at the end of the day by Mark Leavesley, the barrely rolls came from him, we would have had another flight and tweaked it but the turbine battery was getting low. At least I know that it flies ok and it just needs a bit of fine tuning.
The only thing it didn't like was the flap, I set my landing flap to 50mm with a few mm of down elev mix (as per instructions) after consulting a few flash flyers, when mark tried the full flap she nose dived groundwards, this was switched back out and she landed on T/O flap. I have since ditched full flap and set her for 8 to 10mm T/O and 15mm for Landing and no elev mix.
