Here is a hint when you are programming your radio for the flapperons. The surfaces should droop 30-35 degrees then when you move the aileron stick full throw you wan tthe downward going aileron to move just a little and the upward going surface to AT LEAST reach the nuetral / level with the wing position. If it goes a 1/4" or so above nuetral that's even better. Setup like that it handles superbly flaps down. Pic of mine attached...

I also have a Century Sport Hawk with flapperons, that one is setup the same way on a 9303. The way I accomplished it was to go to DeviceSel and set Flight mode to the flap switch, trim to FM and dual rate to FM. Then you can set seperate throws for each of the 3 flap switch positions in the D/R screen and go to the aileron differential screen and set differential for the two flaps down positions. In my case POS 1 is linear - that is flaps up and POS 0 is +75%, that is both takeoff and landing flaps.

BVM still sells them for $12.00 plus 7.50 shipping and handling. If for some reason they dont I have a new set I could sell you for the same price as BVM. I wouldnt be able to ship them till thurs as I am leaving town for 3 days in a few hours.

Juango my Mav didn't need droops, it never had them. It landed nicely.
Dude, seriuosly, you will have more fun with that Viper as a Ducted Fan. Why? Simple....with that .96 you will hit 200+ on any given day. With a turbine you are restricted to 200mph.
Keep in mind, a turbine will not fly more than 6 minutes on that airframe. The Ducted Fan will only last 4-5 minutes as well. Not an airplane to fly aerobatics or cruise around. It is meant to go fast, and it is really good at doing that. There were a couple of UV's at Sabana Seca, ask for Frankie Mirandes.
Enjoy it, I know you will.

ja,ja,aj liked the P-47? I have a Yellow F-16 with a nice set of PRANG decals (198th FS). I used to work out there on the F-16's and later the C-130's.

Sorry I havnt checked this post in a few days. Why arnt you ordering them from BVM ? They are certainly better able to handle the shipping and the credit card or whatever payment option your choose. If you want to buy them from me you will need to send me the funds in advance unless I can send COD to PR. Wed is the earliest I could possibly get them shipped VIA COD.

EL DIABLILLO, Holy *****. Seeguro que se quien es. I know you too from Borinquen R/C. I used to work on the avionics shop next to your dad's shop. I was known as "pinky" (Rosado). We had some really good times over there.
Sorry to hear about your dad's health, I hope he is doing better.
Small world.
P.S. dila a tu papa que se recorte.

DO YOU THINK IS BETTER TO USE 10% WILDCAT JET-A FUEL OR 15% WILDCAT FOR MY BVM .96 ?
I'M THINKING IN USING 10% WILDCAT JET-A FUEL CAUSE I WON'T BE USING THE VIPER FOR HIGH SPEED FLYING, LIKE TROWING THE AIRPLANE IN A POWER DIVE DOWN WIND AND STUFF LOL..... NO WAY !!!!!!! ESTO ES PARA COJER EXPERIENCIA CON UN AVION VERY MANUVERABLE, AND TO GET USE TO LAND THE AIRPLANE USING THROTTLE MANAGEMENT (CON UN POCO DE POWER EN FINAL APPROACH). YA QUE LOS AVIONES DE TURBINA TIENES QUE HACER ESA COMBINACION DE THROTTLE MANAGMENT PARA PODER ATERRIZAR LOS TURBINE JETS .....
ESTE VA HACER EL TRAINER MIO HE, HE, HE !!!!!!!!!
I'M USING IT TO GET SOME FLYING TIME BEFORE I MAKE MY MOVE TO TURBINES THATS THE REASON WHY I BOUGHT IT AND BESIDES , ITS AN AIRPLANE THAT I ALWAYS LIKED TO HAVE AN THIS APPORTUNITY CAME TO OWN ONE, AND I BOUGHT IT !!!!!
