I know there's a lengthy thread on RC Groups but the information is scattered.
Just received my Texan. Unboxed and all looks good except that one of the little red dots on the top of wing was not in the proper location and there are Navy markings on the side of the fuse though the livery is the USAF version. A minor QC issue.
The Art-Tech Manual is very lacking in many ways.
I've built many and ARF but this one is pretty funky, especially with the wiring setup on the wing box. Not sure how this all goes together. What plugs into what?
Is it recommended to mount the rx on top the wing saddle or inside the cabin? I might e adding a gyro.
I also bought the sound card separately from BH as Motion did not offer it as an option. It pains me to send them my money.
Looks like there are several recommended mods, some more critical than others. I'm most concerned about the wing spars and joining them. Secondly, strengthening the elevator hardware. Some have recommended using hinge tape.
How to you remove the faux radial too gain access to the motor? Is this piece glued on? It's fragile and I'm afraid of breaking it.
What is the recommended yellow touch up paint ? With all the minor surgeries for mods needed, it will need some touching up. The paint scratches off very easily.
