[sm=thumbs_up.gif]SBD Dauntless Electronics Set-Up

As I mentioned before, here is a listing (and images) of the electronics that I'm planning on placing in the SBD Dauntless Guillows conversion to radio control:

1) E-flight 480 Brushless Outrunner motor
2) 30 amp Electronic Speed Control (off brand)
3) (3) JR DS285 Micro Servos for elevator / rudder / ailerons
4) Thunder Power 3-cell 1320mAh 11.1V Lithium Polymer battery
5) Spektrum AR6100 Microlight Receiver
6) HiTech 82 Metal Gear Micro Servo for landing gear
7) Servo Slow Down Module [not pictured] for landing gear delay

All but #7 were already in my arsenal of rc equipment from previous Plug-n-Play purchases or from when I just felt the need to own them (Ha!). So we're still budge conscious to date, or as much as possible. Heck, I even got a deal on the Guillows kit from my local hobby store because they know me so well, as I'm in there almost every other day (not necessarily buying stuff). Either way, pics are attached so feel free to take a look. I've also done some preliminary testing for aileron installation in the wing of the Dauntless - and all is looking promising for a smooth internal installation.

Oh, Andrew (the other one) Thanks for the links to the Corsair project. The one thing that I was hoping was that with all the requests on his video post that he'd put up some more detailed information or shots on the project. But alas, it was not to be. plus the vid of him flying was less then expected since most of the time all u were watching was sky w/ a dot in it..... but hey, it flew! Sweet......

Cheers Everyone!
