Default GP Dazzler & Engine selection

Hehe. Well, I build the elevator & stabilisor yesterday evening.

I did however modify the elevators design a bit. The original only has about 30° degrees on the diagonal side where the rudder is moving. This would not allow for a very big rudder movement. I modified this to 45° degrees, and made them a bit longer to compensate for the loss. Here a rudimentary drawing of the modification:




Black lines are the elevator as per the plans, red lines are my modification.

Crash90, it surprises me that you could not get unlimited vertical. The dazzler is a very light kit, I know of a guy who had a 3D Model that bigger & heavier than a dazzler, has a .46FX with the same prop and can torque roll it...
