Well I was gifted an old electric biplane from my brother years ago. It didn’t work and I wound up suspending it from the ceiling of my grandson’s room when he still lived here. Some weeks ago in a fit of straightening thing up I removed it and decided to fix it up. The electronics except for the servos for the rudder and elevator were outmoded. I filled and repainted the faded blue with red. The wing attachment was problematic and required fixing them together. That made reaching the bind button of the replacement receiver very cumbersome. So I drilled a hole in the fuselage and mounted the receiver flush so I could push the bind button with a small rod. Now I just have to wait for fair weather and little wind. It passed the range test but the CG is just a best guess. So we’ll see how the maiden flight goes.
