Build it and they will come or rather in this instance send it and they will build?
Hahahahaha…Let’s get the Beaver finished and then we shall see! Oh, and now get the Top Flite Staggerwing on floats. And there’s still a Python waiting to go back together. Then, it’s a definite maybe!

Got this beauty in the mail yesterday. It’s the Mini Dart 2 DLG carbon version. It’s crazy light weight. Hopefully I can figure out how to assemble it without screwing it up. It’s really delicate compared to anything else I’ve ever built.

Looks great Mike. There is an art to putting a DLG together. Watch plenty of videos and you will be fine.
I’m on page 28 of 40 of the Mini Dart 2 thread on R C G lol. Been watching a ton of vids for sure.
So far all I’ve done is modify my servos to fit. They were to tall mainly because the servo wire exited out the bottom of the case instead of the side. Also had to thin down the servo horns. Learned both those tips on the build thread.

My first DLG was a Mini-dart (V1) glass. The hardest part it figuring out the pod layout IMO (with any DLG). Super fun!!!

They are quite cute and comfortable. I was disappointed that mine kept glitching out... turns out it was the "improved CNC gimbals" I put in. Put the old right stick back in and it's been great. I'm still having trouble coming from Futaba to this radio. I've been flying my TA horizons Cub around with it.
You EdgeTX guys, is there a way to reconfigure the format... or maybe I just need to reconfigure my brain. I just cannot seem to wrap my head around the layout easily... appears cryptic lol
