Tank mount goes behind the tube. It should also be glued to the wingtube sleeve for additional stiffness.

Vector rods need to be trimmed slightly. Degrease the threaded rods very well, then hysol them into the carbon tubes with an adhesive you really trust. If those pullout it's game over.

Carbon rods over the threaded rod just free float. They're provided to increase the stiffness of the threaded rods, so they can't buckle under extreme loads. Most critical for the flaps. There is a manual that is mostly pictures that you can get through your rep.

I am thinking to get a Diablo for 3d flying. For pilots who had flown 3d both gasoline plane and 3d jet, could you give me some ideas on how easy is to learn 3d flying on turbine jet vs gasoline plane? If you can hover a gasoline plane comfortably, how easy is it to do the same maneuver in Jet?

Once set up easier. But you must trim the vector pipe position before expecting the gyro the hold the hover.

We are now going to have 5 of these at our field.. this should be fun! All vector thrust except one. Need to get mine finished!

We now have seven, 4 vector and 3 non.
