All is left is to program the radio and we are ready to fly!
4,916 gram with 5,400 mha battery (1,126gram), contra rotation, flaps, nose fin, seven servos, Throttle-Tech System, all painted model (3,790 gram without motor battery), it is good.

The air brakes are very affective and have no side effects beside slow done the plane.
I made some measurements of the time it takes for a long vertical dive:
No brakes at all - 8 Seconds.
Motor brake only – 9.5 seconds, about 20% more.
Motor brake and air brakes together – 12 seconds, 50% more!!!.
It make possible a close and slow flight (in calm conditions) with appears to me very attractive.

That brake effect looks great! I was surprised at the reflex on the ailerons for the "landing" setting, rather than a neutral, full travel configuration. Can you explain?

Hello Isaac, beautiful job on this build. Could you share the degrees of up & down deflection for ailerons, flaps & elevator you have for both braking & landing configurations.
With regards to the nose rudder, I’m not sure how it is used. Is it mixed with rudder for opposite deflection? How many deg deflection is effective?
Thank you for your input.
