So I am building my dad a simple soarer for Christmas, trying to get him in to RC flying. First of all, let me know how you think I should present it to him. Right now, my 3 ideas are either trying to wrap it (the plane will be built, so it will look rather silly), try to "hang" it on the tree, or present it to him by throwing it across the room to him. Let me know what you think.
ALSO, and more importantly, the pushrods I have are much too short for the build (I probably need another 5 inches). Right now, I don't have time to buy longer pushrods, and the wire from construction flags that I sometimes use is also too short. Has anyone else found a solution to this? I feel like I either have to move the servos back further (and kill the CG in the process) or ziptie/hotglue 2 pushrods together to make 1 long pushrod. Please let me know what works (or if it doesn't).
Thanks
