Fusion Restoration

[bracesport]

@jonoashton - I could have done with your expert advice, but the cows and I chipped away as best as we could - do you currently have ballast on your fusion (under the wing in the recess) - any insights from the video?

Based on the spec Jono gave me the fusion CG is about 85mm back from the leading edge (my ailerons are a tad bigger than Jono's I think) - when I balance the ship at the theoretical CG point I needed to add a bit of weight up front to balance, so maybe I was flying a bit tail heavy last week.

my ailerons were +/-15mm with the high rates, so I dialled them back to +/-10mm, likewise, with the elevators, they were flapping wildly so I dialled them back too - my rates are 100/80/60 so I should be getting 10/8/6 which looks roughly correct in the video.

I checked my expo(I am running 40/20/0) and they appear to be set correctly.

I will certainly do a glide test next!

Well its been on the wall a while - today I stripped and replace the wing servos and am looking forward to flying the fusion again - If I am going to learn to land this is the beast to do it with!

What servos did it have in it?? Does it have a 6v battery

The Savox 0256 is a strong 6v servo
