Just a little headsup. While people have used a pull-pull rudder on the PW with great success, if you are using the BME 50 then you may want to leave the two rudder servos in the rear....

Exactly. No smoke system in mine and no pilot bust either. I wanted her as light as possible without hacking up anything.

Right now I am using a 22 x 8 MA Scimitar Profile and I...

I had the same experience as smallfly. BME 50 up front with four servos in tail and a 6v 2400mah receiver pack just behind the canopy. The plane came out slightly nose heavy, just the way...

RICKY ROCKET,

No we are also getting 30-40 mph winds. One of my cars is literally buried up to the roof from the snow drifts.

servos

Same here. I'm using (2) 9151 on ailerons, (2) 9151's on elevator and (2) 5945's on rudder on 6 volt. All digital and wouldnt have it any other way.

While I'm sure this is overkill, this is my...

I have my BME 50 mounted on the stock GP mount. I only have a few flights but so far so good... knock wood. It seems to be strong enough.

I also thought the stab section was poorly designed. I just globbed a ton of 30 minute epoxy into the rear of the fuse and when it dried I gave it some hard pulls. It seemed to be holding...

Todd,

The distance from the firewall to the spinner backplate is 7". She is a great flying plane and you will be very happy with it.

Which OS are you using that you cannot use adobe acrobat? ...

Does anybody know offhand where the CG should be at the wing root near the fuselage? The instructions only tell you what it is at the tip.

Mine wasn't as bad as yours, maybe 1/16" but it was there. So far I haven't filled in the gap but will be using epoxy when I do.

Even with the way it is, the stab is in there strong and I...

Just FYI, I have a 22" on mine and theres plenty of clearance. Another 1/2 " on each blade will be no sweat. She is a big bird.

I was only messing you, hence the :) at the end. My wallet and I find it amusing that full scale parts are cheaper than R/C.

Anyway, here are a couple of shots of what you get for $130.
