Building, assembling, maintaining
and flying RC models Involves lots of small detail's and tricks that you learn
along he way, here is a small list of things you already know:
- Models are hand made and hand
made items are rarely ever perfect.
- You
appreciate the high skill level and dedication it takes to build models for sale.
- You
raise your flaps before you touch down. EVERY TIME!
- That
if you pre tape the wing joint and lay new tape over that you will never pull
the paint or covering loose.
-
Wire must be clean to solder to.
- Batteries
need to be cycled and checked every other month. TX too!
- Your
charger has text!
- There
is a difference between a landing and a crash.
- You
program your TX and center all sub trims and flight modes before you start assembly.
- Top
drive flaps work great when you get the geometry correct.
- You
sand the mold release out of the wing pocket before you glue the servos in place.
- You sand the servo
case before you epoxy them in.
- You
put the wing joiner fully in the TIP first on 3-piece wings.
- It's
not a sin to sand your joiners to fit in the wings easily.
- Control
throws are just a starting guide. You define the finished throws.
- Same
for CG.
- If it takes
a really long time and lots of glue to do something you are probably doing it
wrong.
- All linkages
are straight.
- You
listen to the guys doing it better than you are.
- Z
bends are Bad Ass! Use a Z bend pliers.
- Hot
throws = slow race times.
