Default Re: Dalton 300 build.

260 Looks great. I am just about to start covering my 300. Everything has been sanded and preped. As far as the contest goes I am not sure if we are going to have one. I am not able to organize it right now but I will talk to Ryan this weekend about possible working something out.

Interesting.......looks like he went with the pattern concept of no counter-balance...

Not sure that will work right on a GS

Default Re: Dalton 300 build.

had a TOC pilot talk me into it - at least I will have someone else to blame.

made a few changes here and there but nothing major. If it doesn't work can always cut it off and put a counterbalance on it.

Sam; If wer'e ever in the same neighborhood you can fly it. Hopefully we will have a Shreveport contest.

Hopefully this will cut down on some of the long slow roll coupling, I dont know if I'm a good enough pilot to feel the difference though.
