Prof100 Registered User Thread OP | Discussion Another Wing Attachment Method Here is video of plane after installing 240 Hobby King LED surface mount lights. These are simply powered by the 3S on board regular power system pack. I added a on board switch to turn them off and on. Thanks to AJBAKER and the people who posted on the Sky Surfer mod thread. Go there for more ideas. FINISHED SPECS of my build since I basically ripped out the power system and radio and replaced it with known quality parts. You can separate the fuselage using a kitchen knife to break the adhesion from the glue that's used. The motor is simply glued in using Plumbers Goop which take 24 to 72 hours to cure. The plus is if you ever have to remove it the damage to the foam is minimal. Plane specs 3M strapping tape on bottom of wing from wing root to tip to lessen flex when pulling out of a dive or inside loops. Update: Flaps and spoilerons were added for short landing zone over the top of trees: Here is the situation of my backyard landing zone: Flap cut outs Demonstration Video To summarize, the plane is setup with two position spoilerons and and two position of flaps off the flap switch. Full flaps operate independently with the gear switch. Skysurfer with flaps and spoilerons (0 min 53 sec) I added one Turnigy Adjustable Slow-Down Servo Speed Regulator on my flap setup on the Skysurfer. |

Thanks. Hobbyking sells the Bixler Version 1 for a very reasonable price. Just buy the least expensive version, it would be cheaper than parts from BH. |
