RE: Seagull Edge 540 - 68

Another thought. Sloppy linkages, and warn gears will cause this too. You said you've been flying it for a year or so...gears could have been shot and just finally gave.

RE: Seagull Edge 540 - 68

Did you seal your hinge gaps? If they are not tight enough it will cause surface flutter, thus destroying the gear train on the servo's or jsut tearing the stab half off.

Why a drug scale? They sell nice gram scales on the bay for 20 bucks at your door. I bought 2 of them and no drugs.......

RE: Seagull Edge 540 - 68" (60-90) ARF New v2- Building

Exactly. Removing small amounts of weight from aft will seem much bigger up front.....nice to see you did the math for us. It is simple really but it slips the mind easily. I always wanted to try...

Did you try a light tailwheel also? It may seem small but 3 foot from cg makes a big difference. Going the pull pull route will probably take care of it but who knows.

RE: Seagull Edge 540 - 68" (60-90) ARF New v2- Building

There is always the option of pulling the covering off and start cutting excess fat in the tail. It is not all that hard to do but it more time consuming than adding lead.

Instead of adding dead weight try bigger battery? Closer to the engine. I know one guy who runs a saito 100 with tail servo's and runs a 3600mah sub c cell pack under the nise right behind engine...

WHere did it balance out? If at 100mm or anywhere back from that it is gonna be tail heavy in flight. I like it 90mm back and so do many others.....so where is yours set?

If it works I am buying one too. I do not like black canopys. Love to add the pilot and details if I want. Just finished my cockpit on my 33% edge and I love it other than it has a tinted canopy.....
