I resized the Meteor missiles to 1:9 scale for the Gripen.
Print as light as possible except for the mounting lug (if used). To stabilize printing vertically, some breakaway pads are added to the forward section. Remove after printing. Underwing pylons for the Gripen are here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4713773

Really nice job on the armament BenOzzy, did you use the pylons that are on thingiverse and did you modify those? Im asking because i found the originals not to be fitting that well to the wing of the Gripen, or did you design your own maybe?...yours look really nice, specially with all the missles and tanks on it.

If people let me know of issues I can generally fix them pretty quickly.

Freewing Landing Gear Steering Arm Type A - Metal - N512
These are upgrade parts for the following Freewing aircraft:- Dual 64mm EDF Jets (A-10)
- 70mm EDF Jets
- 80mm EDF Jets
None of the other types show JAS39 as a special version.

Never used a gyro...
Looking at the Hobbyeagle gyros. Which is the programming card for the Eagle A3 Super 4? Seems there is none available. Can only find the Super 3 version programming card but no separate super 3 gyro.
Not too keen to use the PC to setup.
Basically I might as well get a second gyro for another aeroplane without a second card so I am looking at options.
Input appreciated...

If you wish to buy one from MotionRC, they only have (at the moment) the A3 Lite. This one will give you the 3-axis gyro and will tame the "wobblies" on the Gripen. Programmed like the EVO via the onboard button and blinky light.
A3 Lite 3-Axis Airplane Gyro from HobbyEagle - HEA3LTE The A3 Lite is the latest 3-axis gyro for airplanes, which is developed based on AVR platform and applies the high efficiency, concise and mature algorithm. Experience with previous gyros and introduces many new features such as PPM receiver support, separate 3-axi
