Just wanted to share about my Lysander build with all of you and what a fantastic plane it is. Will start with the box and some unpacking.

Simply counter sink the screw that goes into the control horn and problem solved.
Looks like a pretty good ship and nice hinge work there.

Here is the basic motor and prop setup. Went with a Tomcat G160 and a Master Airscrew 3 blade 16x8 with a Dubro 550 spinner. ESC is a Castle Talon high voltage with 2 5000mAh 6s batteries hooked to it for 12s. Also forgot to mention I used MKS DS1210 servos throughout the plane. As for the dummy radial engine almost the entire center was hollowed out to get the motor through it in the end. I removed almost all of it right down to the top of the cans for each piston.6 Photos

To get CG correct for the 93mm back on the wings I had to add one pound to the cowl area. I did this by making a custom wood plate and mounted above the firewall and used 2 plum line weights purchased from Walmart and bolted through it. The Lysander was almost perfectly level after this.3 Photos
