Adding Flaps to the F15 Eagle
Welcome back to Inverted Aviators RC! In today's how-to episode, we are going to be cutting flaps into our favorite jet: the F15 Eagle. In this easy mod, we demonstrate how to safely cut chunks out of your wing, and then add new servos to control each flap. We dive into all the techniques required to accomplish this addition, like how to cut the foam to allow for maximum movement, how to avoid accidentally cutting any wires, how to cleanly reroute wires, and much more! This modification can be done to any plane, so feel free to adapt this method into any of your own planes! Stay tuned to see more about the F15 Eagle! We plan on testing the flight characteristics with this mod, and we even have a few more changes that we are going to make to this plane!
