help with my king combat
king combat , can anyone help with my setup of my king combat , the plans really don't tell you about control surface movement as far how much up,down left, right. I'm using a os 15 la for power and a 4oz tank inside the wing. I put the tank were it shows on the plans and the 4oz round fits nicely in the leading edge. I using monokote for covering. I think i should balance from tip to tip first thing. Any king combat experts out there that could help me would be greatly appreciated

24% to 46% cap 232
I would like to scale up a set of ohio r/c cap 232 plans from 24% to 46%. Is it as easy as a trip to kinkos, are is their thing I need to do to make it fly imac. I have a 24% kit with all built up balsa airframe, I was thinking about foam wing,stab and vertical fin when I do scale it up. the other thing is the airfoil shape for the tail feathers, all the big airplanes I have seen at the imac fly-ins all have airfoil stab,and vertical fin, This will be my winter porject, so I will be posting a lot this winter. thanks for the replies and help.

RE: brio
Don, I am wondering if your big cap can do 3d maneuvers, I would like to do that with mine. would I have to increase my control surface size and if so about how much? I can't wait to get started this is going to be my winter build. thank again for your help. I saw you fly at the NATS and I think that brio is a great flying airplane and throught about scaling up the brio 10 to a 2M size I love to build,and fly pattern, I know a good light and straight airframe will be easy to fly and compete with. I plan on flying adavnce at the 2007 NATS and hope to have two brio's next spring thanks again
