Joe,
Couple of the things I found:
Very thin stab tube sleeves and not much glue holding them to fuse sides
Internal fin structure that was not glued
Some internal wing structure not glued
Holes for retaining stab screws VERY close to edges
Fin clamp that did not clamp properly
This kit is great value for money and very nicely made in general so I am not knocking it. All I was saying to Ron was that before I cranked open a 50lb P200 I'd sort the above if he had the same in his kit. Hell, I'll be sorting most of them for mine 160 powered version!
I was only trying to help - maybe I caught him on a bad day
Cheers,
Mark
Mark,
I do get a bit jumpy from time to time sorry about that. We have had no issues with the kit other than landing gear retration. That problem was solved by adding more air bottles for volume. I will take it out sat and burn a little kero through the beast. By the way I do not fly around full stick all the time I only use the extra power for strait aways and verticals. There is no substitution for that extra power. Mark thanks for the help sorry for getting a little short.
Ron
