Hi Dennis,

Thanks for your reply !

According to the manufacturers specs the TT is 3ounces heavier (22.6oz cf. 25.7oz). If all your gear is as far forward as poss then I shouldn't have any problems

Yup, indeed, they'll be photos but that won't be for quite a while yet I'm afraid. Although I have an extensive gallery of all the Hog (and other bipes) images I could find I still haven't decided on a colour scheme yet. Maybe fluro pink lightening on black LOL

All the best,

Steve

I've got a question for those who have used two aileron servos instead of one. The kit includes the additional hardware and has holes in all of the ribs etc to run the servo wire... but what method did you use to run the servo wire out of the wing? The instructions call to "sheet the top of the wing just like you did the bottom". Doesn't make for running the wire right out. My current thought is to build the center of the wing just as it would be for a single servo, except not cut out the W1 ribs as called for in the center. Then not sheet that area to let the wire out. Any thoughts?

Does it not call for the addition of paper tubes to be rolled up to be inserted into the wing holes that are punched/ lasered out to accommodate the servo wires? I used that method and then I hard wire my servos into the wing. Meaning I don't use servo extensions. I cut off the wire about 1" from my servo then solder wire to it and use shrink tube on the solder joints then run the wires out the tubes and get the proper length, and depending on weather you want to use flaperons is how I end the wires. Meaning if you want to use flaperons you just solder the connections back onto the ends of BOTH servos then connect them to the extensions you have coming out of your receiver, from ports 1 & 6. If not you just solder the connectors back and the when you insert your wings you just hook them to a Y connector that is out of the #1 port in your receiver. If I am not using a plane with 2 wings such as the SE. I will solder the wires together and do away with the Y connector all together. The less wire length you have better.

I can't find a spot ANYWHERE that it calls for paper tubes, I assumed them on my own, unfortunately, I didn't think of it before I glued the two wing halves together which makes for a more difficult installation of the tubes.

But the instructions which are added specifically for the dual servo setup literally say to sheet the top just like the bottom. If I hadn't thought at the last second, I would have been cutting the sheeting off to even get the servo wire from the wing to the fuse. That's the part of the manual that baffles me.

New questions,

I started with the wings and am getting back to starting the fuse. Theres a note not to use the provided engine mounts for a four stroke larger than .80. My wife gave a Saito .91 for this.... Did anybody have a preference for replacement engine mount?

For my Saito .91 I have the Dubro anti vibration mount (grey metal T posts with rubber grommets where they screw into the firewall.

some say overkill but I've had no issues
