Yes sir! I was looking at it and for the weight per size I'm sure that elevator will throw it around like a rag doll. Even the ailerons look massive

All AR636A, key here being the “A” at the end, receivers are preprogrammed and having ruined one already by trying to alter its parameters, I won’t even try to install one in the AS3X program anymore.
Spektrum is also silent on the parameters they use. To try and build knowledge on how to program AS3X, I have installed AR636’s in some of my airplanes. One of them is my old PZ T-28.
I have three flight mode’s set, 1 is off, 2 is middle of the road gain, and three would be the high end. I was not finished experimenting with this when winter set in. That said, anytime you see oscillation in flight, back off on the gain.
It turns out that most of these planes actually come with an extremely capable $80 Spektrum AR636A Sport receiver, and it can be reprogrammed using just a smartphone and a special programming cable…

Just the struts.
after fitting the struts I was redoing the CG and the right unit stayed down and started smoking. I quickly disconnected the battery, removed the full retract. Attached photos of burn mark to wing(almost right thru to the top) and the hot spot on the retract position switch board.
anyone have an alternate retract unit they have fitted?
lucky this happened on the bench or else it would have been a burning Bird after take off!

I will check on the left retract. After fitting the struts I cycled them 8 to 10 times without a problem.
