Yep, two bags is the way to go. I'm not too trusting in the small little padded flap that separates the wing bag for each wing. I'd rather use one wing per bag. For how inexpensive these HK bags are, I'm more than happy with the 76cm bags. They fit well, and they had them in stock at the US warehouse.

Yes, to all. Still beeps. Dbl checked wiring and connections too. Just wondering if I'm missing something basic. May pull the pod off tomorrow and check wiring. If you have any other thoughts I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,

it does sound like your on the road to recovery. I took my A-10 to our club meeting tonight and it was a hit. First flight is early Saturday morning at a small fun scale meet. Looking toward to it. I wish I had that great close up of the nacelle logo it's real clear how the logo is position over the spear. Hang in there. Hopefully you can still get some modeling done.

I painted the FMS gear with gloss white plasticote. After it dried, I used 3&1 oil to loosen everything up. Worked like a champ and very springy now. After 3 flights off grass haven't lost the yet. Greased every landing. Making the more flexible with oil on all the parts including the strut helped soften the landing.

OK Gents,
There is a little trouble in the pigpen..
Has anyone had difficulty with servo horns not being centered properly? I was able to get my starboard wing dialed in with just a few adjustments of the linkages, but my port aileron horn is obviously not centered, same with the inboard port flap but to a lesser degree.
I don't want to tear up the wing removing servos, anyone have any tips for pulling a servo with the least amount of fuss?

No worries. Dug up a little more data. Was thinking about putting two strips of dental floss under servo when gluing back in
to make it easy to lift out next time if need be. See post 9
