    Looking at buying a fx22 transmitter. Which I believe shares it's software with the 14SG . Does anybody know if software version is pre the new eu legislation. The tx has version 3.1 installed.

    Thanks in advance for any assistance

    Hi Guys

    It's been a while since my last post I 'be finished my Vulcan and had it's maiden flight all went ok. I used a Bungee to launch it.Finished weight ready to fly complete with flight battery is 4lb 1oz I've built it without retracts as our flying site isn't suitable for them. The main mod that I had to make was to position the battery between formers f3 and f5 to achieve the c of g as per plan.

    crying Bad luck Glen I'm still plodding on building my twin pusher version it is way tail heavy. It will definitely need the battery in the nose If I'd known before sheeting the fuselage I could have built in a battery box now I'll need to cut into the front and then rebuild it. I also think it may be wise to build in a hard point for a hook to bungee launch it as air speed seems to be a launching problem , well back to the grind .

    Well done John

    I was beginning to think this was going to be another white elephant . I'll be dry fitting everything to check where the battery needs to be located in order to balance the model before I cover it . I don't think you've built a tail heavy model as when you look at the plan most of the weighty bits are behind the c of g.
