HELLO,
any old timers have any experience with the above model flying r/c? i am building this model from a set of berkley plans for r/c.it will be the usual four channels plus retracts and flaps,will be using seperate servos for each engine,elevator,airleron and flap and 2 .40 size engines.the plans show two inciences for the wing,one for controline flying looks like 0 degrees,r/c flying looks to be positive 5 degrees.i believe this was because only one channel was available for flying when this was designed and this would allow the plane to climb under power like free flight.i am planning on setting the incidence at positive 1 degree at the root and build in neg 1 degree at the tips for total washout of 2 degrees to prevent tip stalling.any othe suggestions on wing setup with reasons to back it up are welcome.thanks in advance for your help.
