Started a customers build yesterday.

A Ritewing IYF44 , running 3S 2200 mah packs, and eventually a microdan 2900 kv motor (after an ESC upgrade).

So far - batteries have posed a small issue, they are very fat at 28mm, so have been located slightly more rearward as I needed the thickness of the wing to fit them. all good though, sorted.

Servos are mounting under the corro used for the electric bays, should make a nice clean setup , as exposed rod setups can be tricky to keep tidy where the servo arm exits the wing.

Motor is cut in only 1" total, keeping a nice long chord for stability.

On the underside, I did not take teh spar slots all the way to the end, this should keep this area tidy as well. as you can see, she will also get a corro bottom for the battery bay, yep space is tight

Will post updates as they happen.

Servos are 2.2 kg digital metal gears, work awesome in my LTG48, without drawing too much current.

This wing will be lam filmed for strength, then covered in covering film

Looks really awesome Mat! Thanks for keeping me updated on the progress.

Thanks Jacko, but every wing I have done (apart from the TL80 monster) has been a 1 piece, if I cant fit it in a 200 by 200 square - I aint having it !

Hey eleventyfour - your are welcome, thanks for letting me build it !

Looking good Mat,nice and tidy
