Default RE: CGRCJets A-10 Build Thread

Thanks for the updates. I finally opened up the boxes with the fan setups which I got from my friend who had decided not to use these and got out the paperwork. I misspoke, they are not Dynamax fans, but Ramtec (although I think they are essentially the same size). They are a little tight in the nacelles, and will require a little trimming of the hardwood mount in the nacelles, as well as trimming the tabs on the side of the fans.
Before proceeding I am going to wait and hear from Tam. These fans feel very good and stout, though I have nt run them yet. With this Skorpion outrunner on them they would have no probelm pushing the plane around, BUT they feel heavy. I have not weighed them, but I bet they are near 1.5 to 2 pounds each, which is a lot of weight to add to this model, by the time you put 4 servos in the tail.
Too many questions.
BTW, which servos are you recommending for the elevators? flaps? ailerons?
Keep up the good work.
