Lol, cheers m8, you wait till you see the big fox with terry white tail mod. Might even try tail slide when I'm feeling brave, terry assures me it is easy, ok it with a 2m model but with the fox I'm not so sure!

Hi Jumbo.
Enjoying the videos and photos. Only slightly envious of you having Aggy as your local. Any chance of some photos and video of Terry 's rudder mods please. My S2g Fox is going to need some treatment in this dept. The current closed loop, servo in the front thing is a disaster waiting to happen. I plan to fly it like I stole it, so it will need to be right.

My fox fluttered quite severely on a number of occasions, and it got to the point I couldnt fly it as I wanted. Since the mod its transformed, the tail is now very responsive and no flutter and I've been giving it some.
Terry can advise on the details, but in layman's term the rudder is on a tray under the rudder. There are some pictures info on his fox build video on the build thread if I recall.

Not much than an Alpina in these sort of light winds is there?!
Had a great flight with it just after new year in a decent weather window.

Epic winds and lift means ballast in the Ray

I think Ray has enough ballast of his own.....
