3:27 I have some Futaba digitals in my parts list. U-300s for elevator, rudder, U-400s for ailerons 'cause they're roughly twice the torque, and I'll be using a flite test 9-gram for throttle because carb barrels need naff all torque and I can pinch 30-odd grams of weight that way. Standard for all my aircraft.
Hi Chris, I made the first flight of my Waco last weekend. I have a problem: After I trim and fly level at half engine, I throttle to full throttle and the plane tends to descend. I already adjust the motor a little upwards (4 degrees) but the trend continues. Do you have any idea what could be happening? Greetings and thanks.
Hi Chris, nice work on this waco. I'm planning to buy one also and add floats with some mods. From what I have noticed, the disassembly of the wings for transport, it's not easy, it is better not to disassemble them, right ?. Do you think that a 6 s lipo setup is enough to make acrobatic flight (with floats)?. Thx.
Yes I wouldn't recommend taking the wings off much they are difficult to reattach. A 6s setup should be sufficient with regular landing gear. With floats I'm not sure. Let me know how it turns out! Good luck!
I have quite a large stable of planes and this is by far my favorite. I wouldn't recommend taking the wings off allot though they cam be troublesome to reattach.

2:24 Wish me luck I'll be cramming it into a '14 Challenger for at least a bit......
Mine came in a few days ago. Gonna use a Saito 125GK on it. Can't wait to get mine put together and in the air!

Hi Chris; got the large box last night... I’ll ask you a few questions during the assembling!

Great looking Waco, Chris. How do you feel about the plane by now. Would it be easy enough to break down the wings for transport?

Very nice Chris great job
