    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I have a RedWing 30cc Extra 330 sitting on my work bench for 4 years. I started working on it and something always came first, work, house, you know on and on and on. So for the last three weeks I've focused on it and last night everything was done except to CG the plane. Last night I fired...

    Spektrum DX-20 Recall Info

    Not prvy to the design flaw for the recal? I guess Horizon is no long prvy to my Customer loyalty. Not a good way to build Customer confidence.

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    I do aggressive 3D and I have more than enough rudder for the style I fly. Would I do it again, yessireebob, in an instant. I don't like adding weight or having my batteries up by the engine to have a neutral CG. The placement of the rudder servo on the end of the fuse moment helped with...

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    I had no choice but to cut a hole as there was not way it would fit without relief. It was one of those times where you cut, fit check, cut, fit check etc., until you get the right size hole cut.

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    Yep, servo's on the right side but I used a single horn. In retrospect, I should have used a double in case I want to put a smaller/lighter engine up front

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    Really it wasn't my decision. Chris @ EF said when using the DA 70 to install the push/pull for correct CG. If I recall it's in the instructions or I read it in post he wrote. You could probably use the pull/pull with the DA 70; however, I'm one that does like to add any additional weight...

    Aeroplus 35cc / 76" Edge 540 from Limitless Aero

    Gyro, Thanks for the detailed explaination on how she flies. Now I have the money for servos, once I get them I can start the build. What is the recommended torque for the ailerons, eleveator and rudders servos? These are new servos by Hitec and are very, very efficient but I don't know if...

    Aeroplus 35cc / 76" Edge 540 from Limitless Aero

    Gyro, Would you mind describing the flying characteristic of the 540? I won't have my together until the end of July, so I'm really curious how she flies. Very precise, does the 540 float, good agressive 3D? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. BTW, very nice pics V/R Chuck

    30cc / 76" Extra 330

    Glad you talked to the manufacture about the lower blind nuts on the fuse used to secure the cowl ring! That design needs to be modified to be more user friendly. Thanks for the response.

    30cc / 76" Extra 330

    Blind nuts used to secure the lower cowl ring onto the fuse. Can someone tell me how to access the two blinds nuts on the lower cowl ring to secure it to the fuse? Do I have to drill the cowl to access the blind nuts or is there something I'm missing?

    30cc / 76" Extra 330

    Next weekend I may be able to fire up my DA35. All I have left to do is install the switch, throttle servo, choke, plumb and install the fuel tank...oh yeah, can't forget I have to CG the plane. Everthing thing else is done. Wonder where the CG point will be for this extra 330S.

    30cc / 76" Extra 330

    I managed to get a bit more done today. All control surface gaps are now sealed. I installed the elevators and linkage, same for the rudder. The below pic show the elevator on high rates, it gives you a good idea how much throw I have on the elevators. Also, managed to installed 4/40 blind...

    Does anyone know if the spacing from the firewall to the front of the cowling is 6 3/8” or 6 1/2"? Trying to mount the DA
