Title: after burner and machine gun
Post by: deltawing on December 23, 2016, 04:00:02 PM
Get my ARF Dynam A-10 for sometimes but never get finish for the summer. Now just finished with a machine gun and after burner simulation. Will see how it fly new season. ;D

Philip,

Looks cool!

The after-burner video shows flaps deploying. 
I hope they are dedicated flaps and not flapperons. 
Flapperons are the equivalent of adding wash-in in the wing.  I have learned not to use flapperons on certain airplanes after it caused a flat spin on a .25 size P-38 (nitro).  Also, I put flapperons on a fully variable channel (knob or slide switch) and not a two-position switch so I can deploy it slowly .... two and a half mistakes high....and see the effect.  Once it is proven to be OK it can be changed to a 2 position switch on the TX.

For what it is worth.
