Default RE: Picorare Build Thread

Brian,

thanks for your kind words. I try to be informative in my descriptions however my build threads tend to be more of an "experience" narrative than a "step-by-step" of what I did, how and why. I deliberately omitted all the details of the wing and stab build as this has been done before many times by pattern builders. I did go into more build details in my Deception 10 build on this thread:

I haven't had a chance to check out your PM on RC groups but will do so after dinner.

After a few runups, the Dualsky motor seems to be doing well. The only thing I wish I could alter is the length of the prop shaft. It would give more options for spinners. Hyperions G22 series might also be an interesting option based on their conical design intended for gliders. I might have made some comments on that on RCG. I got my motors from a supplier in Western Canada as I contacted 2-dog as well and he mentioned they would take some time. They cost about the same as your quote CDN$43 + shipping. If you want to use the same motors, I'd go with your Malaysian supplier.

David.
