hey amigo,
keep tabs on the plastic control arms for your stabs. check them periodically as they appear to be pretty close to the engine

I just installed my engine in my Tams F-16 and noticed that it's not quite as centered as I would like it to be[img][/img]. It looks to be alligned a little to the left of center and maybe even a tad low. Based on the pictures is this acceptable or should I tear it out and redrill holes to align it perfectly centered. I'm really worried about trying to redrill these holes close to the original ones. If I do, should I apoxy in the old holes and then redrill? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Chris
True that, listen to Buck on this one. I used plastic control arms on my Tams F-16 when I first started getting into turbines and they melted causing a crash. Even though the control arms themselves were blocked by a balsa sheild the metal rod connected to the metal clevis transferred the heat and melted the control arm. = loss of elevator.
