    Nice! We need a baby report. Once the baby comes many of your projects will be put on hold. Indefinitely.

    ... do the space-X thing, get it vertical, bring it down and then grab it out of the air ... I know nothing about it, just the first thought when the topic of landing was brought up ..... thx for sharing your acquiring of a new project ... as always .. never stop dreaming, just dream bigger .. have fun be safe, save our oceans ....

    If he adds just a bit of differential to the ailerons it will be SOOOOO much more pleasant to fly (and much). Have the aileron go up more than it goes down.
    Easiest way is to do it mechanically by changing the angle of the servo arm.

    Not bad, I have a friends Courier in my hangar. It is a Rans, it has the brains in desing. Wing root pins are horizontal un like some amateur desing where they are vertical. Make a steel wing struts and fly it from the back seat like a Piper Cub so you get the CG in place with four stroke engine.

    Good to have Sylvia back again with her pleasant giggle and voice of sanity. As to the frame, is there a frame bending device that would allow you to bring the frame back into conformity without taking it apart - piece by piece? Also, is that side by side seating or is it one seat behind the other. If it is not side by side then it is an absolute no, no. Sylvia belongs there right beside him.

    G,day Jonas and Silvjia from Sydney Australia.
    OK...
    Great to see you both, I hope the farm is bringing you comfortable times and preparing for Holly Christmas. Hopefully you have a 'bargain' being the RANS7 experimental frame.
    How bent, really is the frame?
    Does it need to go into the assembly cage or can you check with measurements, string lines, lazer levels, straight edges and measuring?
    I'd like to know if you PLAN a build pathway; with
    * Materials
    * Surfaces
    * Wiring harness diagrams
    * Avionics
    * Engine
    * Wheels and suspension
    Or... Just start building "in ya shed"?
