I'm going to join you in the am. I think Bobo is going to show up also.
I just got done charging batteries in the Yak. I hope it will run, since it or me hasn't flown in over two months.

Carl,
I changed out the throttle servo, and with a little re-routing went from a 24" extension to a 12".
Also eliminated a "Y" extension and was able to plug both top aileron extensions directly into the Smart-Fly PE Sport.
I might go check it out tomorrow early.

Jim

Oh, since I had to take it out to the driveway and run it to set the end points on the new throttle servo, I pumped a little smoke oil in her and warmed the muffs up real good while setting throttle parameters.
I flipped the smoke switch and HOLY MOTHER OF GOD !!!
My neighbor lady directly accross the street was raking leaves and when I turned around to see how thick the smoke was..... I couldn't see her.... her house.... or the house next to hers that was downwind.... !!!
Man do I wish I was rolling tape on that !
I have video'd stupider stuff.....

Homer, the blue you gave me is a little too dark.
Here is the left over TrimCote (peel & stick) from before.
I'll bring the blue with me next time I come to the field.
Looks like this weekend might be good !
