    Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”

    I hear what your sayin! I'll probably build the mounts in, and try it both ways to see what I like better. I know the ProX really benefits from them. Hopefully the Glitter is a beast without them!

    I hear ya Snoop, I do think they help with tighter knife edge loops, easier hairiers, and slower landings. Just more over all stability. I'm in the process of making a template for them. I'll have to make rib 7 out of ply though!

    Like the side by side Snoop! I'm thinking of adding side force generators on this one also!

    Think I got the fuse about finished up. Glued the rudder and rudder support on . Fuse stands up nicely on it's own.

    I'm on my third ProX 260, so I do have some extra parts. I fitted the old lawn darted ProX landing gear today and so far so good!

    Thanks Snoop, Got the landing gear figured out and the servo position will work out ok. It's close to where you have yours.

    Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”

    Ok, made my first mistake!! I used the ProX as a template for the throttle servo before checking the position of the root wing rib. Cut the hole in exactly the wrong spot. I had to fill in the hole and move the servo down a bit. I also built the tank/ignition mount. I think I've got the fuse all...

    I hear ya snoop! I'm going to patter mine after the ProX. I think I can get away with it. I'm still thinking I'm going to fill in the first two lower bays for an external fuel and ignition mounting surface. I'll probably use some 1/16" light ply and sandwich some balsa in the center.

    Got the fuse about wrapped up. Still don't know if I'll mount the fuel tank in the fuse, or on the side of a mount I'll build. Also still need to cut out the throttle servo hole. Wings are next!!

    Also starting putting my old Sig 1/5 Piper Cub back together. It's been moth balled for years now. I installed my BME 90 gasser in the nose, new fuel tank, and moved the rudder servo back to a pull pull setup. Took the scale landing gear off and installed the stock gear back on. Shed some weight!!
