Thank you 👍

@@RCTaildraggini believe the radian is what i will be getting and thanks to you for actually showing what can be done with carbon to stiffen it up. I can't fly where i live because it's a landing path for the major airport by me. I have found a couple places to fly and just don't see myself using the lights on it because it's usually morning weekends that i go to the field. I wish they still made the xl or a version with out the lighting.

So glad you enjoyed the videos 👍

Two differant beasts. The night Radian is an awesome plane but it's flown typically like a glider.. power up, climb, and sail around. The Evolution has more performance, its 4 channel and i typically fly that one power on all the time, unless I want to coast at bit. I like both planes equally but I fly the Evolution more..

@@RCTaildraggin the radian seems flimsy in the videos It seems like it can't take much wind either. I'm considering one or the other and wish the radian had ailerons. The evolution seems more like a plane and a hot rodded one on 4s.

I've only flown the Evolution on 3s, plenty of power..

@@RCTaildraggin thanks for the input and that's all i was thinking of putting in it. Was hoping for longer glide times. It does seem like it would take more wind speed then the radian

I believe is saw a video on youtube where someone added ailerons to their radian. You could do that..

@@Metal_seer yes you do need to pay very close attention when using this saw, it can be a bit scary i guess!

@@aa7jc thank you!!

Thank you very much!

@@LS-de4jw sure thing, but it's been a minute since I built that plane..

@@larryblanks6765 thank you!

It's not too difficult, just make sure you understand every step before gluing.. thanks for watching!

Sorry just seeing this, yes the spars are spruce 👍

Thank you for your comment. I am very sorry to hear you lost a plane :(

The only problem I had was it needed a lot of right thrust, it took all right rudder to keep it going straight until I added more. To help it turn right I also had to reduce the throttle.

I believe I ordered it from Horizon Hobby, if I remember correctly!

Thank-you very much!

Hi Jon, it's been a minute since I built this plane, honestly I can't remember if the right thrust is jigged in or not, bit it would certainly need to be. If the nose goes together square, then yes I would definitely add some washers on the left side (looking from the cockpit)..

I pulled out the firewall from my kit, too bad youtube won’t let you put photos in the comments. The cross marks on the firewall are offset to the (cockpit) left so the crank is on centerline. I won’t know if it jigs at an angle or I will have to shim the mount but it won’t matter either way since the offset is there.

Just a follow up. I started my build and once you pull out the two fuselage sides you can see they are cut the same for the firewall tabs, there is no built in thrust angle. Because I’m building mine with a .52 4-stroke I moved the firewall back about 2 1/2” and trimmed piece F-12 and also cut new holes for the firewall tabs. To fit a 10oz tank I will have to trim some of the battery tray of F-1-1 and F-2 for the tank width but I wanted the full strength of the fuselage built up before I trimmed it. I also pre-glued the front and back fuselage sections so they were set with a straight edge. I mixed and matched as one way fit up tighter on the dovetails than the other. I thought it might be a bit flimsy for nitro power but as I added the stringers and sheeting it’s ending up being a pretty stout fuselage.

Hello and thank you for being interested. The servos were spectrum 6390's I think, part 5 of the build series will briefly show you how the servos are installed!. Thank you again! I get very few comments so it was nice to see yours 👍

Thank you!

It's a hobbyist saw, it will cut no where near the thickness or hardness of ordinary wood. It will bog down and stop if you try anything more than hobby (balsa) plywood..

Part of it was my fault because in that second I got confused about the attitude and made some wrong input I think..

Thank you very much Ian, this really has been a pleasurable experience. Phase 2 will be continuing with the trees and getting g a bit of grass growing. I can't wait to give one of my foamies a chuck around, see what some aerial video might look like. Plenty of cleared space for those but my bigger balsa planes will need a little more space to be comfortable! Cheers my friend!

Yep it happens, just the nature of the Hobby really!

Thank you Ian! Should only be one more update before we move in. Yeah the neighbor was a pain but atleast I didn't have to deal with him, that is the power company's problem. Cheers my friend and best to you and your better half!

Thank you brother! I could probably harvest a dear from my kitchen window. I forgot to mention in the video that 3 dear ran off as I was walking up, but video wasn't running.. thanks for watching!

Thank you!

It flew very well, yes I had to add a couple clicks of left rudder. Everything I own is in storage right now as we are finishing the new home and flying field of RCTAILDRAGGIN!. After we get moved I will be catching up with all of the maidens and remainders eventually. I would be happy to have you follow the house build on my same channel (latest videos). See you in the air!

In the end, pilot error.. I was attempting a steep right hand turn, the wind caught the lower wing a bit and I got disorientated and gave the wrong input.. it happens.. the plane flies very well after the repair..

@@RCTaildraggin Incredible. Finally a Pilot who admits personal fault for a crash, instead fabricating a pack of Lies for a wreck. You're a good man. " I " unfortunately am responsible for too many damaged and destroyed airplanes myself. Peace Brother.

Thank you!

Yes a modular is the way to go, it's too prohibitive to have a contractor build just one custom home.. so build it in a factory and ship it to the site is a good solution 👍

Vented yes, but power and insulation is the first job on the to do list..

It really was well orchestrated, everybody has specific jobs to do!

You are very kind, thank you Ian 👍

Thank you very much Mark.. 👍

Thanks a bunch Ian greatly appreciated 👍

Thanks for pointing that out, I don't even think I got a notification.. cheers Ian..

Will be a blast!

Yes it is thank you Cliff..

Thank you very much Ian!

Thank you very much!

Thank you!
