Hangar 9 Advanced 40, Good sport flyer. Aileron servo needs to be centered in wing, not offset like from factory, with just about all the throw you can get. I still have mine and I think I have the instructions If you need any info.

Didn't have the decal on the wing either, hmmm... But it is DEFINITELY the same plane, thanks again guys! I just put it in a bit too hard. I could blame it on the bad engine, but, ultimately, I was the one that put it in there, so its my fault. Anyway, what did centering the aileron servo do? Just curious, I left mine offset and you're right, LOTS of throw, and it flew fine. I was unsure about hackin away at the mains. I'm not sure tho that I noticed anything squirrely, seemed to bank evenly both ways. I do remember having to use different holes and rod lengths; does centering it just even out the load on the servo? What should I have been looking for? It would be good to know, because I have to rebuild the wing (nasty split down the center), and if I can't, try to get a new one (a long shot, I'm sure). If centering the servo makes that much of a difference, I'd like to do it.

Thanks again!</div></span><br type="_moz" />
