DH VAMPIRE

Awesome. I am planning to fly this weekend. I'll bring the camera

That's an impressive inspection hatch you have there, Pete. Where does it fit?

That's a lot of waggly bits on the wing Pete. I'm going to show my ignorance and ask: what's the difference between a flap and a speed flap?

Made all the servo hatch covers today eleven in total . Over the weekend i will cover them in solatex and get some pimer on them.Next will be to work out what i need for the control linkeages and put an order in.
Im going to use 3mm stainless stud bar with a carbon tube outer to take up any play and 3mm ball links on both ends. For the control horns i will use DUBRO heavy duty on the flaps and air brake's and for the rudder's/elevator and aileron's, David has made some nice f/g horns from 3/32 sheet which will be epoxied into pocket's on the surfaces.

Nice little video for some inspiration

You can clearly see the speedbrakes in action during the landing

Enjoyed that Jon!! The vampire makes a similar sound like the hunter.I think the pilot's call it the "Blue note" caused by air rushing down the cannon barrel's on the hunter, not sure on the vampire though?
