RE: Spot On 50 Build log.
I finished the rudder installation including the pull-pull and servo. I like the hardware but found the cable gage excessive and difficult to thread through the fuse...it kept curling up. I had some extra Du-bro pull-pull cable laying around and replaced it. The horns are little too far fwd so the trailing cable is running a little slack. I may change the servo arm to a wheel with some offset to correct it....maybe, it's not that bad.
AB sent me a new stabilizer...got it in the mail today along with Rx pack I intend to use. The new stab is much better than the first so as far as quality is concerned I'm quite happy. We'll have to see how the plane trims out after the first few flights.
The Rx pack is another good way to save an once or more while improving performance. The SR pack is a 900mAhr 6V Metal Hydride, the LiPo is 1350mAhr 7.2V and the rgulator is a 6V Jaccio.
Incidentally....after I "un-twisted" the left wing panel all my measurements for horizontal alignment were crap. I basically had to put back everything I sanded away at the saddle. That's why there is a ply plate on the hold down area. The lesson here is to take all warps out first, then start alignment and set-up.
