Bob H Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Just finishing off a BB J60. What would be a good starting point for the rudder travel ? This is the BB with the smaller rudder of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brokenenglish Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Bob, no need to worry. It's not possible that you could have rudder travel problems with a J60, unless it's almost zero. As a rule of thumb, vintage models, including the J60, need very little elevator, but as much rudder as you can get. My J60s have about 30° or 40° of rudder movement (each way), I don't even know exactly how much, but they fly so gently that your thumb will have no difficulty in "getting it right"!

Bob H Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 Hi folks, At last, this is my completed Beb Buckle Junior 60 Electric Kit, not with the traditional covering, as I had some Olive Drab Tex left over from a previous project. Many thanks for all the help I have received from this Forum, especially PatMc's Thread, from which I copied the motormount and Lipo position. Cheers, Bob.
