Sorry Michael.

Let me check with the 2 that I have left.

Oh Michael's trying to deviate from the stock outline! LOL

Hey Michael, you could just mount one upside down and hinge on the bottom. That would work fine and it would make your Nooner "special"

Didn't you make your elevator one piece with balsa in the middle?

Yes I did. I was joking about the other series rules

Michael · March 07, 2013, 02:16:04 PM

Oh, the other series.

Michael · March 07, 2013, 09:28:56 PM

A little progress.

Elevators glued together with a spacer and a flat strip of carbon fiber for extra strength glued in a shallow slot for a flush fit.

One of the elevators with my kit was incorrect so the left elevator was cut and sanded from scrap balsa.

Control horn in place but not glued.

Hey Ed where did you get that neat 4 pin plug for the two servos?

Jack.

Its a 4pin micro Deans Jack. Makes great connection even capable of 10 amps! Great quality/value. Come in red and black too

So Michael built his own replacement elevator half, which looks great, but I have his rejected one. If anyone in the group build finds they have two of the same side, as Michael did, let me know. I probably have the opposite side.

I only have a few finishing touches to complete the plane to fly it tomorrow. Trouble is no energy. I need motivation or one of Cadez's elves

sihinch · March 08, 2013, 06:10:25 PM

I'm gonna work on mine tonight! How's that for competition!?

Ededge2002 · March 08, 2013, 08:47:13 PM

OK OK Simon! The race to whos Nooner is airborne first is on. Frank your disqualified for no reason at all.

Hmmm I should just pick up some lucky and go to Greg's house!!

sihinch · March 08, 2013, 09:03:19 PM

Mine's done!

thehaze · March 08, 2013, 09:17:05 PM
