Tail wheel made from a couple small washers with heat shrink around i and the jacket from ESC wire for inner hub. Metal wire is the length of the rudder.
The control wire I used was a bit flimsy, so I used a length of 12-2 houshold wire for extra strength. The heat shrink tubing.
Robbed a Spectrum receiver from my CX2 because Im still waiting for a HK oreder from nearly 2 months ago.
Powerfull Motor!

H-King 20amp ESC burnt after take off. Motor specs. called for 20~30 amp ESC. Should of got a bigger one. (Hind sight is 20/20) Now I robbed the Blue Series 40amp ESC from my HK450 GT untill this one gets replaced.
Crispy!
Notice the screws? Opted out of glueing in servos. Just cut half inch by one inch peice of wood (I used an old yard stick) and hot glue to inside of fuse. You should do this before hand, im sure it would be easier than waiting till the end like I did. Thank goodness for Hemostats!

and baby blender is 25 in. tip 2 tip.
thanks for the question.
I did however for get to mention the pieces of yard stick i used for the servo mounts. Didn't want to glue them in and wanted an easy way to replace. so I glued in .5x1 in of wood on the inside of the fuse. Now if I need to change a servo I can easily unscrew the screws.

As I landed the cheap zip tie's I used on the landing gear snapped broke. I knew I was gonna have a problem with them Because when I tightened them down initially I noticed how the turned white around the stress point. No matter, Gonna get some better quality ones to remedy the issue. Oh and my set up for the tail wheel didn't hold well, back to the drawing board. I think I'm gonna check out how Experimental Airlines does his landing gear with gift cards. Ill keep you posted.
