Title: new 2.4 ghz Zero
Post by: bill bischoff on April 30, 2013, 07:41:35 AM
I've been messing around with adding text to photos. Here's a picture of my new Zero showing the components.

Off topic a little. You use your battery as tip weight and just lenghten the wires?  Can you add text to a couple more pictures of this plane?  Say the bottom?  I'd like to build a AMA profile with a Wiley .36 and maybe go 2.4.  I have the MO-1 plans and cores, but I have looked at a couple of your other drawings.  I don't like the look of the MO-1 all that much.

The 2.4 gHz installs are getting slicker every airplane!

Are you going to cover your leading edge with balsa or ?

There is a second layer of silkspan over the receiver under the SLC, but that's it. To get to the receiver I'll have to cut into the covering. If I do it neatly, I can just put a clear sticky patch over the incision, but then I'm not expecting to have to cut into it.

 Looks like another really nice model in the works Bill. I gotta razz ya about a Zero with fuse mounted gear though! n1 :##

I know, the fuse mounted gear doesn't look right. Somehow, it doesn't seem quite as bad on the Hellcats. But it does look better with the airplane finished. You'll see this weekend.  ;D
