No gyro/ stab on mine but many will tell you all planes fly better with them.

Just applied the decals - my wingtip rails are dialed in printing production rails now- anyone need a set LMK! Also tweaking my Burners to fit the 36mm can, hopefully get that installed this weekend- low tides are coming next week I should be ready! I made Blue Burners on Su30 Alenka, these will be Amber

Nice work on those rails InTheTubeDeep! Like Hugh said, they break easily and I still can't believe FW didn't make those as separate spare parts. They could have made a fortune on those alone, lol.My YouTube RC videos:

Thinking about buying an F-18 to eventually do a turbine conversion with and have a couple questions for the group. Before putting in a turbine, I want to fly it as electric to get used to the airplane. I am considering buying the ARF+ and dropping in an 80mm FMS Predator 3280-KV2100 that I already have on the shelf at home. Will this be sufficient power or should I stick the the 90mm HP? TIA

Sorry for this, but I'm thinking there are a lot of other people like me - have / fly both FW and Eflites...
Anyway, this pertains to the Eflite Viper 90. I crashed mine and i'm in the process of putting her back together, but i wasn't smart enough to take pics of the nose gear linkage / set-up when i took her apart, so if any of you have one of these birds and would help a brother out, please send me a pic of the nose gear down inside the gear bay so i can see what i should have photographed... and how the linkage all goes back together...
many thanks in advance if there's anyone that can assist...

The blue box is screwed in! Luckily I unscrewed the batt tray and noticed before I broke something trying to cut it out- I designed an extended tray stock is 228mm, if I measured correctly its another 62mm to back wall, so made a single tray 290mm, but that came out to 11hr print so I just designed a shortcut to glue to original tray added 62mm, should be functional and allow the SMC 6200s or other LiPos to be pushed further aft

InTheTubeDeep Tack😁
I think I go around 95 on the CG, en work from there if I need. And I have some up elevator mixed to the flaps, I hope that will work as a starting point.
And for the Gyro (Spektrum AR8360T) I really don’t know. Three position switch with off, 35/35/35 and 40/50/60 maybe?! if anyone has a good tip, it is gratefully received. :-) I don’t want to mess with a knob when Im flying 😅
