No problems - just have to have adequate airflow.

bodywerks - What servos did you run on ailerons?
Aren't you concerned about running all those 5955s straight through a receiver due to high amp draw?
How did you setup the servos with power boxes?
Why did you choose the AW 35% 260 over the Compy 2.6m extra?

Thanks
Shaun

The issue on the single alerion servo on the Planes Plus Extra... One 5955 would be more than enough, also you looking at less weight. That plane only weighs 23 lbs, when most 100cc planes come in at 25-28 lbs. IMO I would not be worried about flexing because of the low weight. Just not an issue in my book.

Prime Time - Isn't aileron flex more dependant on aerodynamic loading of the aileron then simply the weight of the aircraft? I understand that inertia is one component, but velocity, control horn location, and the rigidness of the aileron have to be important as well.

Are there any other suggestions for aircraft that meet my requirements. (BME 110, ARF, and I don't want to run a lot of nose weight)

Thanks
Shaun
