Yes, a tilting table is valuable. Thats the problem with the cheaper models, lack of a tilt. I have a cheaper one how I know. I have had full size models in the past so have some experience in use. Bas

I second that , join a club. Normally there will be somebody that has tx/rx for sale. You know where it comes from. Bas

This forum is not about spelling or grammar , dont worry about it. Bas

Thanks for your input John. Bas

John, if I remember correctly the plan is for built up wings. Sarik do not mention foam wings. Is this your build?. From the sound the model is fitted with an electric motor and what looks like a 5 blade prop!!!!!, that is the ears of a novice, so could be wrong!!!!. Is this your build? Bas

David, are you in Australia?. I have looked up Traplet and Au' is all I can find. Bas

Hi David, it is something that I to wanted to build.electric was /is my choice. I have the plans as well. I just cant make that last leap. It looks like a big project, it worries me that it will drag on for some while. Please keep this thread going and keep in touch. Yes please keep in touch!!!!! Where did you get the foam cores?. Bas

Many thanks. Bas

Dont forget to keep your smuggler clear of the prop.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck Frans, from a novice. Bas

Ron, is it possible you could tell me , better still show me how these were hinged please. Thanks. Bas

Thank you gentlemen for your input. I hope from this I can work out something that will suit this application. Once again many thanks. Bas

Well Wookman, I can work out , in theory about a lever system that works, but; there are the other things like, covering the spoiler face, that means you need access to reconnect after covering. Needing access to adjust the system so that they close properly. Both LH & RH mechanics must be identical, therefore adjustment required. Where is the ideal position of the 'Brake' on the wing surface?. I assume the surface area will be reflected by their efficiency . The T31m is my first venture into gliders our field is not that big so I think it needs brakes. A picture paints a thousand words. I can fix the servo (With adhesive )But need access to the coupling at the other end (Fix to horn) under the brake, cant seem to be able to work out the fittings required. Bas PS just had some other thoughts. I have difficulty in adding pictures;!!!!!

Can anybody advise re above. My limited knowledge has allowed me to work out various methods but they all fall down on one aspect or the other when it actually comes to fitting them. I can't find any info on the subject of fitting airbrakes anywhere. I have looked at Chris Williams latest Foka, (Free plan) but there are no details, well not enough for me. Thanks in advance. Bas

I look forward to following it. Bas
