The Topaz is finised

[Robcrad]

Hi all,
Finally finished the Topaz from the Chris williams plan in the Scale soaring digest, It is a bit of a first for me, first scale glider built from plan only, I normally build kits.
Fitted with Frsky redundancy hub which has 2 independent receivers and 2 batteries, Kingmax servos.
Just need to set up the radio, which leads me neatly into a question, what are the throws for the ailerons and elevator?
Need some nice weather now to complete the maiden.

Well done Rob! Mine’s still got a long way to go.

Well done, Rob, now there are three...!

The throws should be on the drawing thus:

PROTOTYPE CONTROL THROWS:

AMT: 28mm up, 20mm down (Measured at root TE)
Rudder: 45mm each way
Ailerons: 20mm up, 10mm down
Landing aid: Ailerons mixed 15mm up with airbrakes
Elev. Compensation: 6mm down

That looks good Rob.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info, I had a quick look on the plans and couldn't find they throws on them.

regards
Rob
