hi everyone how r u. my name is adrian lewer aged 25 and i reside in melbourne,victoria,australia.
i am a victorian model aeronautical ason, helicopter and fixed wing instructor and have been flying since i was about 3.
i have owened and flown just about everything from foamies, old timers, d/f aircraft, turbine fixed wing, 30,60,90 and electric heli's. i also muck around with yachts,nitro cars and buggies,blimps... you name it if it had a radio control i had to have it
...
i have been keen on large scale aircraft since my tjt powered kangaroo bit the dust last year and have been hunting around on another forum trying to get advice with no luck. i was talking to a friend of mine who i do not see reguraly and he directed me here.
i am extreamly keen on the extra 260 with a da 150 but recently seen the hangar 9 ultimate and i have falen in love
... i will use the da 150 in this model as well.
now that i have decided on my model i need to know if anyone has any advice for me (positive and constructive negative)... i would like to know the correct balance point, what thrust angles the motor and top/bottom wing should be to the horizontal stab. i feel that 0 deg on bottom, + 1 1/2 deg on top and +1 up thrust with about 2 deg right thrust would be my educated guess but i dont know if i am realy educated enough
..... also some proven control deflections would be nice.....
i might be a pain in the arse on this forum with the asking questions bit but i want to get it right before i even fly it to minimize stuffing around after a maiden, i do realize i cant get it perfect to start off with but want it as close as close gets....
any info would be appreciated and if my post needs to be moved can someone help me with that.
thank you
adrian lewer
