RE: Redesign and reconstruction of the Oldest Taurus on Earth
Gents, new pictures.
In the past you did see the engine room, the tailfeathers.
This time some construction pictures of the control room.
As I did show you in the last post the position of the elevator servo is adjustable, so we can make inside and outside loops with full throw and without transmitter adjustments.
Why?
This is Classic Pattern Flying and I want to experience what Ed did have to do to trim his plane. Maybe not on this may, the servo’s he did use were linear, but then he has to do it another way.
When I do have the right adjustment I can recalculate the right angle of the elevator lever to draw it on the plans. Than the servo can have a fixed position in next planes.
Two pictures of the mouting plates of the elevator and rudder servo and the tray. Also the rudder I can adjust.
Last picture the mounting position in the Wester Taurus. Plenty of control room, even for the receiver. The battery gets a place beneath the tank.
After the adjustments are made it is possible to glue the adjustable plates and tray together if I want.
