I found this model in the loft of a friends shop and bought it and now am in the process of building it. I installed a mega S 4 motor and I'm looking into what typ of servos to install.The kit was incomplete and I'm missing the 10mm wing joiner and the hardware package.Anybody have one of these sailplaines? It is the arf version and looks real nice. Lou

It is the Multiplex/Tangent plane you have?
If so it is perfect to go for FL-servoes from Multiplex in the wings. These servoes are not cheap anyway. The Hitec HS-125 is always a good choice in thin wings... I have some MPX-models but not the Kranich. My MPX Schampus flies using FL-servoes in the wing and standard Graupner 5077 for the tail. A friend of mine have one Kranich, think he use a Kontronic in the nose and it climbs like an elevator! Heavy though...
Among my projects there are two MPX`s, Alpina Magic and ASW27B. Both will get HS-125 in the wings.

It is the Multiplex Kranich....I installed a Hitec 5245 for elevator, 225 for rudder . I have 6 Expert SL451's and I'm considering installing them for brakes , flaps , and ailerons .
