Tim the torque tube was parrallel to the cheek plates indicating neutral position. As for the thrust line it has been drawn parrallel to the keel, seems you may be referencing the exhaust muffler which is not true. Also the gyro was held by a mate at the tail.Nick, Yes, the blades were fitted during the VSofG test, thats why the stick was locked fully forward.As for the plumb bolt, it was hung off the left fork of the forklift, and can be seen runnimg down to the top of the strobe. It was poorly positioned and is hard to see. All in all very happy with outcome, just need to fly it.Regards Sam. []
