PAU does not reccomend it. The wings are built light and there will most likely be flex in the surface if you do it. Especially since the servos are spread to each end.

JohnVH should have some pics up later today of my smoke system!

If you run a single servo you will get flutter. The ailerons are big and need both servos to function correctly.

Hey John. Who is that Flying the Edge.
Some of us on the east coast need to put a face with the names.

Got the fuse wiring finished.

Attachment 270348

Prop is painted and spinner cut to fit the PAU 28x10

Attachment 270349

I printed out a dash instead of buying one. Installed a floor for a pilot figure. Then sprayed it all with fleck stone.

Attachment 270350

And of course the BLING.......lights tied into the 3W ignition and the ED optic kill.

You may have to resize it.....not sure what happens when you post it here vs how it was on my home computer.

I kind of thought that it was Snapshot. I didn't think that was you cause the edge is to close to the ground.
