Has any one had trouble with retract control box? I put power to box, plugged in a retract and hit test, nothing.. I tried both plugs and even hooked rx to it and tried retract sw on tx, got nothing. I want to also lighten spring on retract, as it seems way to stiff. Any help here?
Thanks Rick

Thanks Rick
Could be a number of things that might be fixable, share more info and some pics.

Is there a trim change necessary for half and full Flaps. Thanks for help Peter

I still have the model at the published CG and have a small amount of elevator/flap compensation, 1.5mm at full flap and it lands very level, almost hand free. The amount will change with the CG position and how much flap deflection you have. I altered the flap linkages to get more flap throw on mine.
James suggestion to check the input power lead is worthwhile. I recall resoldering mine to the plug as it looked a bit crappy.
The landing gear strut springs are fairly stiff, I prefer that to being too soft, mine is a little heavier with the Saito90. I haven't done it yet but will be fitting a nylon spacer to preload the springs to stop the clattering the gears make when taxying.

Hello)
Just bought the BH Zero ... first huge and first gas project. I’m looking to put in the Saito 5 cyl/75 .. reason I bought the plane. I have heard that this set up has been done, but that the prop/spindle stick pretty far out. Does anyone know of this has been overcome? Can it be? .. otherwise, I’m looking at the Saito 90.
Any help greatly appreciated))

last question ... would a UMS 7 cyl 90 work in the zero? It’s only about 230mm.

Perhaps you must make litte adjustments to the firewall.
