Well, you gotta see what it looks like before you start building right? All that is left for the happy new owner to do is to install the radio gear. Here is a view of the Wizard Compact ballast tube. This is on the bottom of the fuse. The Wizard nose is a blank slate! You can run the V-tail servos in tandem if you want to. I'm using JR DS-368s in the fuse and can mount them side by side. Cut-outs made for the receiver, servos and battery.

The wiring connector is installed. The hook on the bottom is a nice, adjustable unit. Another shot showing the whole root. A Wizard Compact wing waiting for the installation of the Multiplex Micro-Speed Digi servos. In this shot you can see part of the carbon spar.

The servo pockets of the Wizard Compact are already lined with carbon. The exit hole for the flap linkage. I used Belden double shielded wire for the wing wiring. Here are the PC connectors ready to solder. I lined them with a bit of 1/64th ply. I ShooGooed the ply pieces on. This makes it easy to CA the connectors in the wing root and fuse. Neatness counts here!

Multiplex Micro-Speed Digis were used for all wing servos. These things rock! Wizard aileron linkage. The cutouts are already done for you. Wizard flap linkage Looking at the root you can see the beefy flap wiper, the locating pin holes, the cut-out for the Hoopes style wiring connector and the joiner hole.

Flap deflection is more than adequate. This is a 600 ae sized 600 Mah 5-cell pack I was going to use for racing but I think the standard 4-cell pack is fine and will probably stick with it. This is the standard 1400 Mah 4-cell pack. Just before the first flight at Concordia University.
