D'Oh. It took me 10 days to notice this comp. Better late than never, I hope. Yes please! -
No Steve. I didn't see the need to. On my model at least, they seemed quite robust. I've had no problems so far...but then I don't fly particularly aggressively. If you stick with the stock 3S set up, and fly in a scale manner, you should be fine!

Hi Steve, Thanks for your interest, and good luck with the repaint - make sure you post some photos when you've done!!! I used Revell 68 for the green, Humbrol 106 dark grey for the upper surfaces, and Humbrol 64 light grey underneath. Standard late war colour scheme for operations over the channel!

Posted by Doc Marten on 06/10/2020 11:30:58: It's when things happen that shouldn't that they are posted and highlighted, those type of posts are on the increase. But that's my point - increase in the posts does NOT necessarily imply an increase in the proportion of dishonest people. It could be because there are more transactions in total. It could be because people are more likely to report it than before. Of course, it could be because people are less honest, but we can't conclude that from this observation alone!

Does the nominal C of G work for you?
The Wright Stuff replied to The Wright Stuff's topic in In The Air
Thanks, brokenenglish, Yes, I agree of course - it's an easy beginner's model and I've flown it many times. I was just using it as an example in this case to experiment with cgCalc, and illustrate my rant about the incorrect manual value! But I stand by my OP - a bad value for the C of G in the manual is literally worse than useless, because it would be better to not state a value at all, than to state one so far out...
