Default RE: The ultimate low wing stick by Cedar Hobbies

Hi Druff1,

Thanks for your quick reply. I plan on putting an OS 160FX on it. I am thinking about removing the covering and going over it with a fine tooth comb. I got the plane for $50 and therefore I think that I can afford 5 or 6 rolls of ultracote for additional peace of mind. The plane currently has CA hinges. I am thinking about replacing them with Robart hinges. The only unfortunate thing is that I have to probably buy some high torque servos (all I have are Futaba 3004s and JR 537s). At least I can use one of them for throttle control (and maybe for the flaps - ~60oz torque at 6v each).

Happy flying!
