many model planes are designed to a formula (got the spreadsheet here somewhere) and the control surface area is a percentage of the wing area.

That I can understand, all is now clear.

The colour scheme doesn't match Vmar (richmond RC) website photograms.

yeah, it's not a vmar ... some other chinese one!!

i checked my airtronics radio and had it set for 50% ailerons... just to make it a little more realistic...slow banks,etc.

i really don't know where else they are available. i stumbled upon this one when i was visiting a couple of years ago.
there is always the e-flite one if you want the Beaver but it's not the same size. my dad is building the Unionville one and it is very similar in size. i used some of the specs off of that one as these didn't come with very good instructions at all.

i was thinking of selling mine earlier in the year but decided to keep it for now. i was having fun with it.

let us know what you find out there?

have a great holiday rc'ers

I got the beaver up today, 20 kmh winds, +14 degrees, 3 good flights in. first time flying nitro.
i guess the G3 and park flying paid off. thank you guys for your help on the set up, looking forward to next weekend.
Happy Flying All.
thanks,
Todd.

awesome work! +14!! wow!! we are still colder on this side of the Rockies. i actually was thinking of some skis for the Beaver.
how do you find the landing gear. mine seem pretty weak and i'm thinking of reinforcement to keep them straighter!

enjoy the plane!
