Knife edge trimming? It sounds like you flew it, what did you have to do to keep it going straight? Mix that into the rudder.. pretty simple. Rudder - up elevator - opposite aileron by the sounds of your flight observation. Right?

Hey Skippy I have Steve Strickers old TOC Ultimate, it flys awesome but I believe it's kind of nose heavy. It is the same size as Pau's can you tell me where they state the CG should be and where yours is? Right now my CG is about 3/4 of the way back between the two cabanes Thank you Frank |

The PAU is on the top wingtube basically.

Need a photo when it is all completed before the maiden out at the field, as it is a better background than the garage. Good luck and hope you get to maiden it and all goes well.

Of course I'll do that. Didn't want the "Money Shot" until the cowl/pants get painted. Today was crappy out so I didn't paint

I think an 85 will perform very well in this plane. Rudder servo choice comes down tohow much travel you are trying to get. if you use a 5955 I would suggest a 1" servo arm at most. But keep in mind that will provde enough authority for any 3D manuever. That thing is really effective! edit: yes it always sold for $650

A single 5955 servo may work on the rudder, but it would be working really hard. I would go with 2 just to make it more efficient and the servos will last longer plus you will probally get better control as well.
