What does it look like behind the cowl? In other words, is there anything funky going on to replace the motor? My understanding is this is a weakness of the Volantex Trainstar Ascent since the fuselage is one-piece molded plastic which is good in a way, but also means there is no removable cowl and everything inside needs to be removed and you need to snake the motor in and out from the back.

[@NoonzAirborneRC]

Cowl is removable with 2 screws. Fuselage is solid foam only the cowl which is about q inch is plastic. Idk why you would want to touch the motor. This thing is ridiculous on 4s already. Sluggish on 3s for a beginner....BUT not on 4s 👊🇺🇲

GET SOME.

[@BillKisel]

How do/did you measure the rates on the control surfaces?

[@NoonzAirborneRC]

From the center of the wing to the trailing edge when defected

[@BillKisel]

@@NoonzAirborneRC Sorry, I didn't do a good job at asking the question... Rather, what tool, gauge or device did you use to measure the deflection? I know for example some FliteTest airplane kits come with a foam gauge. Thanks.

[@NoonzAirborneRC]

@Bill K gotcha for simple plane like this I have a plastic ruler with 1 mil increments I use a vise to hold it upright to the surface and use that to measure. A little crude but IT WORKS! for my bigger jets I use my xicoy cg machine with angle deflection meter. But for something small like this just isn't worth pulling it out and setting up.

[@BillKisel]

@@NoonzAirborneRC I follow you, thanks.
