41% WH extra set-up
Here are some picts showing the inside of the fuse on my Extra. the cowl is different because the engine threw a prop and busted it up. Overall, came out differrent than all others, simple and easy also.
The Rudder has 2 8611 using the SWB harness to prevent binding. Did beef up the crossmember with a seperate peice of ply and epoxy. Just zip-tied the rcvrs and batteries to the cross braces. Tank, throttle servo and ignition battery in forward compartment, braced with triangle stock. Have 3 8411's on each aileron (had these already) and 1 8611 on each elevator 1/2. 2 of each aileron are plugged into 1 rcvr and the 3rd is wired to the other rcvr, this plane is fully redundant with 1 rcvr except throttle servo. Each rudder servo goes to a seperate rcvr same as elevator servos. have been flying it in the front wing tube and like it there best, so far. Ed |

Re: 41% WH extra set-up
With a DA150 and standard mufflers, I like it in the front wing tube. Seems to snap a little sharper. Haven't played with moving batteries or anything around.
When available, hope to get the CF light gear and then tailwheel also. Time will tell. Ed |
