Aeroic Gremlin build

Is there any specs for the throws and CG? Maybe i missed it in the package.

Hi Nate - I didnt sell enough of these to really think about an instruction book but looking back at my notes:

Start setup:

CG - 85mm
Ailerons - 17mm up, 10mm down
Flaps - as much as you can get. (This model can be a real parachute on landing)
Elevator - 12mm up, 10mm down

Crow Landing:
Flaps - 70 to 90 degrees down
Ailerons - 15 mm up
Elevator (at max flap) - 6mm down.

That will get you off the deck OK, and you will probably need to bring the CG back a bit so please don't fill the front up with too much lead.

Cheers,

Doc.

I'll add that I really enjoyed my time with the Gremlin. Found it to be both rewarding and surprising with how much energy she carried for a full symetrical plane. Felt like a sporty semi but could fly inverted too.

Not bad for a maiden.

Finally on this build.

Sweet. She is a fun plane for solo flying in good lift. Turn one some music you like and get in the groove.

Kyle and I were discussing our mutual love of e6000 and how we have switched from using epoxy on servos, while at sunset the last day. He showed me the premium stuff (red tube) which i had never seen so i grabbed some. He said its even stronger. I dont know if you have ever tried pulling apart this glue it its pretty crazy on "normal". This stuff does have a smell to it though whereas i havent noticed it on the regular.
