Ok, I just now measured the wing tips-to-stabs and vertical-to-stabs. Vertical was 15 1/16" each side, wings were 34 1/4" LH and 34 5/16" RH. Better than I thought, especially for a "foamie". ...

Still flying mine, and I really like it. I'm not sure on my current CG, but can check tomorrow. When I first started flying it, I just went with the recommended CG then adjusted it after some check...

Maidened the Olympus today, it went great! I concur, it flies really nice! It's one of those models that you instantly feel comfortable with. I put four flights on it, and three of those flights...

Awesome. I'll do the same, too... that way we'll have two test-beds. Mine is stock except for swapping the propeller with an APC. All I have left to do is check control surface travels and CG,...

Woodie, I know you kept yours pretty much stock...are you using the stock BEC too? Debating if I want to use a separate battery pack for the receiver, this size plane is about where I go with a...

Yeah, just a little left rudder should do it! Or maybe they designed it that way so you don't need any right thrust... hmm. :)

Ok, good, I'll skip the clear coat. I didn't want to go through...

Thanks for the info, Don. Right, I know it wouldn't add any strength, I only meant it in terms of keeping the paint from chipping/peeling. About the ding/dents, I was wondering if the paint chips...

How is everyone's paint holding up? Don, I know you mentioned that pulling the decals up will lift the paint... how about normal dents/dings? I'm wondering if I should spray a light coat of clear...
