Ditto no problem with the servo mounts. I'm running 9252 digitals on elevator /aileron and a 9202 analog on rudder.

I replaced all linkage hardware with DuBro 1/4 scale stuff (the large black horns that attach with four 2/56 bolts, 4/40 pushrods with ball links). My pal has this heavy-duty hardware on his, too. He has a lot more flights on his UCD than I do on mine, and he reports that the Dubro ball links are beginning to get rather sloppy. We both are big into helicopters, so he knows the difference between a sloppy ball link and one that APPEARS to be sloppy.

Mine are still good, but I only have about 30 flights on them. He has 50 flights or more on his.

Since you are into jets, I assume you are NOT a bright-eyed rookie with his first "real" aerobatic model. Neither me...

I'm really not interested in the extreme flip-flopping stuff and other exotic manuevers this model was designed to do. It does fly very well, although the supplied control linkages will not stand up to serious "3D". It is standard 40-60 size nylon stuff, with 2/56 rods, and will bend. The model still is a good value for what it costs; it just hasn't "lit my fire" like I thought it would. I will be pulling the engine and servos out of it when I get around to acquiring a CG Ultimate ARF.

But unlike most of the planes I try and get tired of quickly, this one will not be sold. It will hang in the spare room, ready for re-activation.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't be surprised if this airplane doesn't make you all wet. I had to have one after flying my pal's, but now that I've got some time on it, it is just another model; one of seven UCD's at my club...<G>
