Yes Owen appears well built and very well covered,may change the ailerons to have individual servos as they hardly move

One servo for the ailerons should be quite sufficient, but you need to know why they hardly move, are they stiff? :)

Do you mean they're stiff, or they just don't have much throw? .... don't risk stalling a servo.

I just own the forum .... you guys make it great thanks.

ONe aileron is hanging off.This is because the hinge is made with the covering and is unstuck .Ill repair that first. and see if its this that is causing the problem.No not stiff not much movement

The correct title is Fokker EV (Eindecker 5).
After some structural issue it was modified and became the Fokker D.VIII (D 8). By then all fighters regardless of how many wings used a "D" prefix)

Nice buy Beard,
Somebody called me 'pretentious' the other day.

I nearly choked on my latte.
