Chris,

You nailed it with the non-stick wood! Strangest thing! Even the glass easily peels up in the tail area, so now I suspect maybe the wood filler I used is preventing adhesion. This is in...

Ok

Well, I'm not sure then how your post is helpful to me. I was really looking for ideas on a fix here from people experienced with this ARF.

Hi

I'm sure they'll say they have no control over how I assembled it. That seems reasonable to me, too. The structure back there is pretty flimsy, though. ..

Hello....

OK, so I'm at my wit's end with what to do about this new problem.

My stab-to-fuse joint let go after the first or second flight. I noticed cracks in the paint right at the root of...

Hi,

On this ARF, with the belly-pan already attached and such, what would a wing incidence adjustment look like?

HI

Have any of you had issues with stab incidence? My bird required a ton of up-trim, even when it was tail-heavy.

Chris,

Yeah, good obs! Normally, I'm all over my rudder. I never touched rudders on models until I learned to fly full-scale. Now my left thumb is as active as the right. On that maiden, I...

Yeah,

On the next flight, I'll go out and do a FOD-walk. I went in to fix the tail-wheel mount. Pretty shocking how flimsy everything is back there. I was able to pop the cracked rails loose by...

Chris,

I have it on the right slider, and not slaved to anything. Frankly, I thought they'd be decorative. I was pretty surprised at how much of a difference they made on the temps.

Hi,

I think the challenge is with the tail doors, and not the retract unit itself. On the P-40, there are no doors to mess with.
