Lol, That little bug was all over the place. Saw it in the last lepton vid too. But to be honest I was rooting for the bug when you finaly squished it. :mrgreen: Good job geting the vids out so fast.

Bob,

How does the part quality look? I'm sure it's not the same as the lepton, but from the videos, it looks pretty good. What do you think?

Thanks,

will

I have to sday the parts quality looks REAL GOOD! This aint no 450 kit......

I think having Jason help then through design and testing made this what it is today. I see no parts that scare me but let me finish the build and I will have a final conclusion.

I got mine on Monday, tonight I'm starting with steps 7&8.

I put the seesaw lever in the 'nimble' hole, I hope that's not too nimble.
Does anybody know how the Szabo/Krause setup is?

Great video's, keep them coming, I would like it build before the weekend! That is if I get my lipo before the weekend...
I ordered 2 XCell 4900mAh 3S1P.

So far the part quality looks really good, I really like the one piece balls and the glass fiber canopy.

Ok, you seem to be very certain about this one. My raptors are setup in the 3D holes, I was thinking this was similar...

Ok, I'll change it, easy, since I did not use CA on that one like you suggest in the Video!

skywalkertje,

Hot new tip..... Some of the Align pilot shave now moved the seesaw arm into the inner hole but are leaving the ball on the arm on the outer hole. They say they like it better for 3D (it's quicker).

Ok, thanks for the tip, I didn't change it yet :wink:

One more question, on page 15 it says that the tail pitch assembly is already assembled. In my case the linkage ball is not attached. I think the screw from the linkage ball is a bit too long, I think it will hit the bearing if I screw it in.

Are all the kits like this? Do you need to put a spacer or cut the screw a bit? Can't wait for the Video to shed light on this...
