It's to bad you don't have doors on that bird. It looks great but doors would make it even better.

RE: Chinook scale build
There will be doors an windows, and maybe even some cockpit action, however , this will happen on the product thats why there is no detail on the plug atm.
thanks Barry

RE: Chinook scale build
Thankyou baurwin, I can't wait to get her in the air either, progress has slowed a little, its winter here, but the moulds are finnished and de moulded, and I can now start on laying up the fuse. That should be fun. Just have to wait for a warm day

RE: Chinook scale build
Gorgok, the yaw control is done with a vtail mixer between the front and rear aileron servos, that way a gyro can be used. This allows the aileron to work as a unit for cyclic, and work in oppositon for yaw control.
