Title: Phase 6 Ailerons
Post by: EI1638 on May 01, 2020, 07:54:18 AM
Folks,

Does anyone know if the phase 6 ailerons have changed in dimension over the millenia?

Looking at the kit, the original design had a standard (3kg/cm torque) servo in the middle, so, logically 2 x 1.5 kg/cm servos would suffice for its current incarnation. But that would assume that the dimensions of the surfaces had not changed.

The radio I plan on using for this one is incapable of a crow mix (its been gathering dust for a while), so two rather than four servo wing by default.

Minimum of fettling desired - to the extent of not hacking the wings - as a result of an excess of last minute fettling on the last build.

PS: I've plenty of 1.6 kg/cm in stock, not so other sizes that'd fit in a P6 wing without requiring blisters etc.
