Default RE: Wheeeeeeee.......... Blade CP!

Hey All,

I'm back from the "Cave" .......Muh Hah hah Hah haa. Happy Halloween Y'all

I took some pictures of how I did the tail mod. I had some 3mm depron so that's what I used. I imagine blister pack plastics would work just as good. The material is trivial, just make it light and make it work I put the main fin on first with packing tape. Then I cut the down force wing and side force wing. The Blade wants to balloon in FF so you want it to pull the tail up. The Blade also wants to yaw nose right so I put about 45 degrees of wing in to compensate for it. Last I install very light carbon fiber rods to support the assembly. In the end it looks really dorky but I always say that performance out ways looks. I'm glad my wife feels the same way

God Bless All!
