      Trim tab allows the pilot to reduce the stick pressure during long climb or descent - in this case the trim tab isn't moving against the elevator. Trim servo tab, in addition to the benefit of the above, the movement against the elevator is basically aerodynamic power steering which makes the stick to be lighter on the pitch RC planes doesn't need this - the servo actuator doesn't get tired and it more simpler to put strong servo than trim tab system

    For getting roll trim figured out, first remove the spade plates completely so you know whether there's actually a rigging problem. Once it flies level without spades, then add them back in and then you can shim to take out any asymmetry in the angles. I agree the tail landing wires appear loose to me. in my experience, lack of fairings on the root of the landing gear can create a band of turbulence that travels down the left side of the fuselage and hits precisely where the horizontal stab leading edge is. Suggest you tuft it with a friend flying formation once you have the basic rigging solved.

    • @tasesq
      @tasesq Před 8 měsíci

      These comments are totally spot on. We removed our spades and did multiple flights, sticking “d seal” to the ailerons to jig the roll out. Then added back on the spades, then used washers to shim the roll out again. Then we tipped the front of the spades down in thin washer increments to increase the centering. It took about 20 short flights to get it sorted.

      @RoyBenAnat Před 8 měsíci

      @@tasesq we did the first flights without the spades, than tuned a bit the aileron that really wasn't leveled than we fine tune with thin shim at the spades. I haven't said that on the video for 2 reasons 1. It will make it extremely longer 2. I'm not an English speaker and didn't know how to explain it properly 😅

    If you don't mind, I would like to add a few pointers I've learned over time: Work on the canopy in a warm environment at least 75 Fahrenheit (25 C). A cold canopy will crack very easily, I had one crack just from handling it. In a bind, you can use a regular drill bit run in reverse (burns a hole instead of cutting a hole). I agree, the cut-off wheel is the best as it's more of a burning than cutting. Finally, sand all the edges round starting with 80, 120, 220 and final sanding with 320 and 400.

  • @experimental_av
    @experimental_av Před 3 lety

    Did you leave a gap between canopy and turle deck for better ventilation? Don't think i've seen that on other planes. Also is using screws have a higher risk to get cracks compared to using glue?

    • @RoyBenAnat
      @RoyBenAnat Před 3 lety

      I was planned to close this gap, but a friend who build 1D (the one in the comment below 🙂) actually told me that leaving it open is making better ventilation in the cockpit and since I'm living in hot country I took is tip, I'm making some aluminum panel for better look but it will stay open. The glue is naturally flexible so even if you're not familiar with the expension differences nothing will happen, but if you're using screws you just need to know that the hole in the canopy should be bigger than the screw size you're using and not tight them.
