So I am pretty new to these types of models. I am building this exact model now. I am having a challenge with how the flaps are supposed to be setup as far as the push rod goes and how to take it down for traveling. How do you set up the flap pushrods to easily take them off for disassembling the wings?
I think you may have posted in my thread on RCG. The pushrods should have an L bend and the wing halves slide on together while you make sure the wire inserts into the control horn. I put up a photo of the pushrods on the thread.
@@rcgvideos ok perfect. Thank you. That’s what I was thinking but wasn’t sure. And yes that was me in rcgroups. Wasn’t sure if you were still responding to this thread ;) thanks for the help.
Yeah you can get them at Soaring USA. Link in description to my full review that has the links for them. Not a great first time plane as a trainer, but with help it could be used for lower time pilots.
It's an outstanding plane. I enjoy flying mine too.

How fast does it go?
Not measured, but it's not really built for speed, but for thermaling.
