Hello to all,
I'm setting up my first electric full house sailplane (Muller Escape)
and would like to know what other Stylus users have for their basic
setup. So far, I'm using the F5B setup described ever so briefly in
the glider card manual. I'd like the flaps to remain on the throttle
I did about the same for spoiler return springs on my old Craft Air
Viking. Similar dimensions, maybe 0.032" wire, it's hard to remember
exactly. Similar trial-and-error approach to adjusting the torque
spring tension. It worked very well.

Hello all,
Any tips on how to gently remove a servo that's been hot-glue'd into the center section of a Graphite? The thin glass/sheeted center-section seems very fragile and the previous owner used a TON of hot glue on this flap servo that needs replacing... *sigh* Since it's not glued to
You could take some fishing leader steel or even mono (less likely to
work) and try sawing it out.
move the line back and forth slowly between the servo and bottom...
You could build a soldering gun wire that could cut thru the hot melt glue..
You could bend a #11 blade and cut and heat it

If you've got a Harbor Freight in your town, you may want to look into
their 12V rotary tool kit... $7.99 w/ a bunch of routing, cutting and
buffing bits. You can also run it directly off of DC power! It's cheap
and doesn't have a whole lot of torque, but I use it quite a bit for
surgical
OK, Here's a probably dumb idea...
Would it be possible to gently heat the outside of the wing skin? Such that
the glue would get soft?
Don't know but may work. Then the glue could be removed piece by piece.
Other wise there's the dental floss sawing method. It's a pain but safe.

This reminds me of how you get the meat out of a conch shell. The way to do
it depends upon whether you want to eat the
Good idea. But prudence will still be required. Don't know how fragile the
skin will be.
The dremeling out the servo idea was also interesting.
