That will do the job. Try a 12x6 or 12x8 prop and see how it flies.

Add the picture to the post then double left click and the options pop up.

For me it would have to be a Saito FG21 which sounds nice and looks beautiful.

I have been all electric until recently due to my desire to build larger models and previously deciding that I did not want to go above 4S batteries. The future for me is Saito petrol engines.

Hmm @Rich Griffyet again you have taken us off topic.

Hi eb, you posed a question as did I, more than once.

 

Many members on here also pose questions.

True and you also answered it for the first time.

Normally I expect a question mark to be used following a question but not a statement.

For example, Is the sun out? but you often make a statement like the sun is out? which I take to mean that you are not sure and do not expect a reply.

Looking at many of your posts they are littered with question marks usually following a statement that with your experience you should know and have no doubts about.

Correct, and your point is?

Immaculate, as usual, and that's only the primer?

Not unique at all by all accounts.

Same here.

I hit an issue I can't solve immediately so i start a new build.

Working on the servo covers.

 

I am thinking of fixing them in place with the film covering as I have never had to replace a wing servo.

Is this a good idea?

Made up the MaxLoc connector.

 

 

What's next I wonder.

Thanks, John, for the excellent tip that works a treat. I could now combine this tip with Peter's paper tube method.👍

 

Yesterday I managed to take a picture.

 

and not a lot more.

I intended to use servo extension leads but

 

The holes aren't big enough.

 

So, I have to make up the extension in-situ. First thread the wire through, a bit of fishing with the aid of a thin wire.

 

 

Then solder and heat shrink the joints, at this point brain fog took over and I forgot to take pictures.

 

Next fit maxlock connector and take pictures.
