RE: CMP 120 Zero ARF Build thread
ok finally back guys sorry for the long and abrupt absence from all of you .... long story but things are getting better (family work etc) any way I don't have much internet access so as a result I will be checking in from time to time as often as i can ........ In the mean time I have had a chance to read through my thread and its absolutly great some of the work I have seen you should all be proud very nice indeed ! As far as mine goes came to a screeching halt so maybe when things get a little better I can resume and finish her up . I have had to sell a large number of my rc stuff for the sake of making bills and other finacial resposibiltes so at a snail pace I will progress but be looking in on all of you in the meantime ....best of luck to all of you that still have the maiden left to do god bless and see you all soon

Luke i got that package out to you shoot me a text when the carrier pigeon gets there, you can piece together a pretty descent looking pilot off of ebay if your willing to purchase him him in pieces, i bought a full pilot only to wind up using his head hands and clothes everything else was put together with blue foam and wire to save weight shouldn't cost you more then 40 bucks if ya go that route

RE: CMP 120 Zero ARF Build thread
Do not fly at the cg set at 100mm that is way tail heavy. .........On the smaller zero you have my personal experience is that it should be set at 85mm, make sure your balancing it inverted with retract extended the through setting should be to manufacture spec

RE: CMP 120 Zero ARF Build thread
Hey guys i thought i would add some personal thoughts and agree with both of you, unfortunately Im new to this whole scale thing as a whole what i did was follow a few basics I've learned on these forums build it light but build it strong keeping everything as far forward as possible stick a slightly bigger then recommended engine up front make sure your got the cg correct regardless of weight and hope for the best! God i hope this works! Lol

RE: CMP 120 Zero ARF Build thread
for This bird i opted for electric retracts by lado never had a problem and never looked back, you could try the Jr but both manual and air retract are more trouble some by design both set up and overall maintenance my suggestion is you check out www.magnumrc.com look under retract also you could check k out www.downandlocked.com for there electric set ups and cost and go from there good luck in what ever you decide Mike

What he said! Hell you could put me down for the tail wheel as well i would happily purchase both! By the way i got those cockpit parts together for you ill get them in the mail in the next couple of days and send you an e-mail, life has been really hectic with work and family i haven't had much time for anything rc wise, but hopefully soon

RE: CMP 120 Zero ARF Build thread
Bean thanks for the insight i had mine set at 135 prior to all the recent changes and additions full cockpit and full pilot sliding canopy split flaps and scale exhaust and dle 30 engine not to mention strengthening the gear mounts and glassing the wing etc which all will add weight just hope its where its needed most but i do expect mine much like Misha to tip the scale close to 16 and half if not 17 lbs so i will heed your advise and set it at 130 mm as a starting point and work from there thanks again for the flight report!

RE: CMP 120 Zero ARF Build thread
11 to 12 lbs is what cmp calls for on this plane and I've yet to see anyone come even close to that you should expect closer to 14 would be a practical number and yes 17 is in the high side but I've seen stranger things lol

RE: CMP 120 Zero ARF Build thread
Misha i wouldn't worry to much about total weight there have been reports on this thread of this plane ending up at the same weight range and those same reports say it fly beautifully! I expect mine to come pretty close to that as well
