@sanjayrai55 sir,
Good to hear she's repaired.
Patch up or new fuselage?
Hope cowl, canopy etc salvaged.

Best wishes for next Sunday. BTW, what's the span, and wing loading?

Regards

Sig Kougar looks great...classic sIg design. Hope to see it flying again. So are you using the Merco?

Found the fault!

It was a defective aileron servo extension! Was causing one aileron to jitter badly  :violent:

Anyway, repaired, extensions changed, and a very smooth remaiden

Thanks Manoj  :thanks:

This one was particularly satisfying - did a lot of work to make the model, and then crashed on the maiden because of the faulty servo extension  :violent:

Guess all's well that ends well  ;D
