Also: inverted Saito 65; 2 aileron servos (in the wing bottoms); dihedral= 4 degrees instead of the 12 degees called for in the plans.

I didn't do too many mods, just a PT-19 windscreen and the tail dragger version with a military color scheme. I have a Magnum 80 4 stroke and it flies great with that, landings with this plane are excellent.

Our club's Hog builder and flyer's routinely cuts the dihedral out completely on all of his hogs. That is his favorite plane & it seems he always has on. Nice gentle flying plane with 70 or 90 4 strokes. Of course he does have that little takeoff maneuver he likes.....about 4 feet off the ground he snaps it inverted and climbs out inverted....like I said nice gentle flying style. Andy
