No problem mate. Glad I noticed. The internal wire is simple way to stop it bending I think

Yes I was just thinking you could cyano some thin piano wire just for the amount of yellow showing down inside it. You really do need something. Hope you didn’t mind me mentioning this as I would hate to see your model crash.

Ah I thought so. There isn’t really any strength in the yellow inner. The red outer needs to only show about 1/2” of yellow otherwise it will bend. I know from experience. I lost elevator authority and crashed

Is that elevator pushrod the inside piece of the snake ?

I will get mine ready to run the engine in soon I hope then see if she flys ?

Great looking. Love yellow and black. mine hasn’t progressed much recently.

I made a ply wedge to cant my aileron hinges forward so they are more inline with hinge line. I used glass cloth and finishing resin both sides of my wing join

I’ve just received my magnets for the same reason ?

Yes a good idea thanks

Thanks

Now I realise the exact size I’ve searched can get a 1.6 x 49mm instead of the original at 50mm can’t see 1 mm making too much difference

Thank you. I stupidly didn’t think it would be listed as a spare in the manual. ive ordered one from fleabay but it’s 50 x 3.55 so don’t know if it will fit

In setting up my Lentus yesterday I had the prop blades removed but spun up the motor. The O ring vanished quickly although I hooked it over the hub. Does anyone know or able to find the size so I can replace it cheers. Mark

Mine is nearly ready to maiden. Bit more radio tinkering first. got this fantastic bag today from Model shop Leeds

Yes I’m excited about getting mine up flying. Won’t be long now just ailerons to fit
