there is still a little tendency to wing drop (Just before the landing), also check your static lateral balance, i think she is port heavy. see if you can round the wing tip somehow, importantly keep the flex, don't loose it. gr8,

Thanks for the compliments tg.
@Augustinev, All discussions were worth it, thanks for all your help man! Yep the new fuse is for correcting the CG part and for a new foldable tail.
..the wing drop seems to be because of over correcting the heavy nose by elevator. But i am planning to do the round tip thing soon, that should resolve this problem.

SLS

Which is this servo, Multiplex ? or is it the HK 9 gm servo with a red tape   Giggle

a few points for consideration

1. In this servo arrangement the push throw will be less than the pull throw, you will have to correct for it in the Radio.
2. when the servo is pushing the control surface the wire may flex, seems to be a cycle spoke, so should hold.
3. after a couple of flights it is worthwhile checking the horn, especially the base of it.
4. Where is the Bevel cut ? is it below, if not cut it it, will decrease control friction (I am sure you have already done it, just checking).

Like i said gr8 build Thumbs Up

 Thanks
It good old HK 9 gm  Grin
1. Did not pay much attention to that, will have to check it pre flight.
2. Yes its cycle spoke, no flexing at all.
3. Will try to secure it with small screws  Roll Eyes
4. The bevel cut is in place Thumbs Up
