Well, I'd thought I'd post some pics of my Viperjet build.
.....
The electronics installations are very similar to mine! I don't have the dual RX but I'm using an Emcotec DPSI RV. You have done a really good job and I haven't thought about separating nose-door and main wheel valves.
You have much longer antenna cables than my three R6014FS [X(], and two are very new, do you have modified the lenght?

Soon I will post some picture.

Ciao
Alessandro


Hi Alessandro,

I indeed swapped the antennas for longer ones. I want two all the way in the nose, and the other two a bit further back. Got them from Emcotec (as I was already ordering the Twin), but more manufacturers stock them. They are original robbe / futaba parts, swapping them is really easy. I think I will do this on more jets.

About the nose-door, it's not scale but now I can close the main doors when the mains are out. Should keep some grass out of the plane (and I think the sequence looks cool )
