    It does look like adverse yaw If you have two. aileron servos try extreme aileron differential ie. all up and no down .The model may require rudder input in the turns

    A mate built the mick reeves camel It was a major faf to build and it flew like a brick .I had the db pup which was great to build and flew well ,it’s not all that scale like though .I also had a db se5 which I bought competed ,it flew like brick .A flair dr1 was easy to build and flew well ,except for ground handling ,which was tricky, again not that true to scale

    I have a Tony Ninjus gnat ,the larger one .I had similar problems getting it airborne .I bought a hobby king catapult .I get a mate to hold the fin ,give it full beans then activate the catapult ,this works great .I have had many successful flights doing this

    The carb spray bar should ideally be level with the tank centre line but I have found that somewhere within the tank is ok .I had a DB 1/4 pup with a laser 200 v twin .The tank was way above the carb but the engine ran fine if I didn’t fly inverted

    JR tx charging sockets are negative centre post, which is the reverse of normal, connect a normal charger and its a problem .There is probably a fuse as mentioned before .Have a look in the battery compartment , if its not there take the back off

    Poly c is water based polyurethane floor varnish, so its not fuel proof .I second Jon 2 pack is the way to go but use a chemical proof face mask .These are usually available from auto paint suppliers .
