RE: Hangar-9 Sopwith Camel Build Thread
I have a pair of Saito FA82s and a Saito FA100 that will certainly do the job if the RCV doesn't. The RCV won't require any holes in the cowl either, so changing up won't make it too ugly. The extra weight of the RCV is a plus on this plane. Also, all the extra space behind the dummy Clerget I'll use to house the flight battery, the throttle servo and anything else I care to throw up there.
I intend to use Pull-pull for rudder and elevator. I'll replace the tail braces with carbon fiber cords and no metal fittings. That, I hope, will reduce the tail weight enough so that I can get to a 3.75" CofG without the lump of lead.
