The SC storch is gone. Removed all the camo, and my SC is now Orange! ( I'll post pics when I find the camera again!)
Finally went and put ailerons on the SC. Very responsive, a lot more controlable than using the standard rudder. It was quite windy (as usual - bizarrely, the wind was practically 0 until I decided to get in the car, at 4.30 pm, and go for a few flights - SC and the A-10, and by the time I got to the field, it was blowing hard enough to push the SC onto it's wing!), but as far as control went, it wasn't an issue.
Had 30 mins on my 3s zippy 2200. Enough time to get comfy with the new set up. Flattened the wing, and have run a 6mm CF tube through, epoxied into place. Using 2 SG90's, and set up in flapperon mode, although I wont be using flaps, as they seem to cause a severe lack of control ( tested at about 50 ft).
Only other thing to say is my SC now seems to be a bit tail heavy, which is weird, as I haven't really changed anything internally
Well worth doing. I'll gain a little bit more experience with it before I try any rolls, and definately on a less windy day.
