Just got news from an inside source at the north pole. Looks like Santa's coming early this year. It will be bigger then a 35% and smaller then a 43%.

How about Taz short for Tazmanian Devel AKA Tornado Boy.

How about rolls with thumbs. kind of a take off from dances with wolves. LOL I don't know what sounds good to you? I'm thinkin it would be fitting for you to have a Spiritual name Daniel. Something like Charib, Hilel,,,,,,,,well Daniel is LOL.

Hey Harv which is a better servo for a 40% elev and rudder. JR 8711 HV or HiTech 7980TH 7.4 volts or a 9157 Futaba on 6,volts. They all are around 400 oz and same price +/- $149.00.

Going to run SWB tray on rudder all who were in Richaland got a good look at a servo failure on my rudder and was able to save it because of the SWB tray. One servo froze and burned out locked the other was still usable to bring it in.

Should I run two or three on rudder? Also singles on each elev half not sure on the wings.

if price isnt and issue, futaba 9157 all the way. if i could i would change all my servos over, but i cant so im gonna keep using my JR's till they die. lol

depening on the servo, you should be able to get away with only two on the rudder. one per stab half, and 2 per wing. same set-up thats in my extra and going to be in my next plane

That thing is beautiful Jeff! I'm happy for you!

Well thank you. You meant that I'm an angel? LOL Well, not quite.

My mother came up with Copperhead, but I'm not sure if I like it.

Wow Jeff, that is one very gorgeous plane. Congrats...

Daniel, good suggestion from your mom, "Copperhead" is a great name. I can see possibilities with it, but it sounds poisionous. How bout "The Reaper"... or "The Shepard"...? It need to be an inspirational name ... "Divinity's Ace", or.....? C'mon guys, there has to be more suggestions.


Ps. Don't worry Daniel we are gonna help you find yourself...Ha JK.. there is the perfect "handle" out there for you man..

How bout one of my favorite characters from The Stand.. "The Trash Can Man?" He constantly gave it up to his leader.. you pretty much do the same. Very loyal. Different leader however; Your a tough one to figure a nickname for.. hmmmm..?
