And my dorsal lamp isn't driven by the blue box, it's a morse signalling lamp with its own controller.

MPX stands for "Multiplex". It's a european model brand. They make well known high quality plug such as these https://www.amazon.fr/ENET-Connecteu...7094298&sr=8-2

Im a dummy,, whats a mpx

[Prekin]

That´s it. We do not use their blue box. 2 MPX connectors for almost whole wings are much easier!

I use control ratio according to FL manual. I added some extra weight in nose, well she needs some trim elevator up.
But only one postion of flaps (like in real Spitfire, just for landing)

From attached picture you can see full flaps and elevator mix.
Going to more open the flaps than I had on maiden.

To Corsair... mate from airfield has probably another FL Corsair. There are 4 screws in the wings. I thought you have the same Flightline F4U.

Yes mine is 1600 fline corsair.. at a guess 2 or 300 flights.. with the spit,, it just looks painful removing the ail flap gear wire, from blue box on the wing.. 3 extentsion wires , from receiver,, will make it easier

[Prekin]

Do u use the book mix...?. And rates

What is more difficult than on Corsair wings? Corsairs wings are on 4 screws and on Spitfire 5 screws.

Not the atatchment ,,just the wiring.. corsair has 2 nice ribbon cables

Lucky enuf to work 4 myself so home early... obvious reason.... put this thing together.... looks awsome... just gota program receiver ,,, inc control rods ,, centre servos....bla bla.. those wings look nice,, elleptical,, i think,, in a different way,, to the corsair,, gullwing... anyway i must say i was surprised at the foam quality,,, 4 an older fliteline... will say,, luv my fms p51,, but this is my 3rd fwing slash flightline plane.... and the build qaulity is a step above fms.... started on dynam,, so not hard to improve.... anyway couple pics.... one last thing ,, removal of wings wont b so easy as f4u,, 4 transport.... will find a solution or deal with it..

[f4u ausie]

Just me overthinking again,,, but it here ,, lunch time tday... thanx 4 your intrest... funny thing,, i read ya post again.. and previos ones.. now im with the program... and u would not believe it ,,, im an auto body paint man also... but we call it bog,, slang aussie,, not bondo
