RE: Deception 10 Build Thread
Hey Rafa,
thanks for your comments.
What retracts did you order? Are these for the Magic 20?
Standard servo's are definitely too big for these birds, especially the 15 sized. For the 30 sized, they can be considered but there are good, inexpensive digital servo's out there with some torque for those birds. I like the Hobbico digital TS-30 and 35's shown in my Nanorare thread.
For mains retracts a low profile standard aileron servo is possible but not necessary - the gear is very light. I'll be using a Hitec HS-65 for the mains and HS-55 for the nose. I'll also use HS-65's on the ailerons and empennage and another HS-55 on throttle for a total of 5 HS-65's and 2 HS-55's. I'll also probably use a 400 mAh NiMH sub AAA pack - very light.
I'm feeling optimistic about weight today!
David.
