anyone? need help with the throws on this ....3rd scale model. top wing is 66", bottom is 65: and fuse is 56"....

When in doubt of specs on throws on a scale model...

Appx 20 deg up and down on ailerons and elevator.
Appx 25 deg right and left on rudder.

It will fly and be controlable. You can dial it in from there.

thanks....i'll try that...

The Great Plains Christen Eagle II is also close to being a 1/3-scale (28.7%). It's actually slight larger than yours. With a 66" top wing yours is actually 27.6% scale. The GP CE has the following stats:

According to the GP instruction manual, these are the recommended throws:

cool man. that helps me out alot....i think my throws are off abit... if you need more pics of mine feel free and if ya need real close ups of a part or parts msg me

can I make a suggestion : Why don't you ask all the questions for this plane in one thread. I think you have way to many threads about your Eagle going, and might get confused. Some of them have same questions and answers. Just my opinion though.

BTW, the throws of the GP Eagle should work for your Pilot one too. Make sure you have the CG right on.

k thanks.... i already have the gp manual.....cg is good i do believe...like i siad i bought her already built...

I am curious, if you have the manual, why are you unsure of the throws to use?

cause its a pilot kit not gp...

I may have missed in your other posts; is this your first bipe ?

yes this is ... actually i also have a cessna 182 skylane and an aircore 40 that i built...i bought this one already made from a friend of mine....

I just asked since bipes have a glide ratio of a brick. It simply takes more skill level to learn throttle control on approach with plenty of elevator travel to allow a slow speed flair. The Eagle is more short coupled than some of the other bipes.
