Welcome to my build series of the Balsa USA Stingray RC plane kit. The Stingray 120 is a great trainer and sport rc plane with an 83inch wingspan and powered by a DLE20 RC gas rc plane engine. I will be using a Futaba transmitter system with Futaba or Hitec servos and receiver. This plane is designed for .80 to .90 2stroke glow engines, .90 to 1.20 4stroke glow engines, and 15cc to 30cc gas engines. I will be using basic techniques of building rc plane balsa kits (or at least the techniques I have learned to build rc planes).

All of these videos will be placed on a playlist.

In this video I show how to install HiTec HS645MG ultra torque servos in the tail section for the rudder and elevator. I decided to install them flush mounted on the rear fuselage sides. I show how to make a servo mounting bay by cutting an opening in the fuselage and install mounting rails for the servos. This is not the only way to install a servo mounting bay, there are other methods, but this will work for this build. In my next video in this build series I will install similar servo mounting bays in the wings for the aileron servos.

I have been building, flying, crashing, modifying, and repairing radio control planes (RC Planes) for many years and enjoy sharing what I do with the radio control plane community, so I started RC Plane Tech channel for fun. I am not an expert, there are many different techniques when building radio control planes. A good way to learn about flying and building rc planes is to see what others are doing, that's what I do and that's why I like to share what I do.

Thanks for watching my channel. Hopefully you will find my videos a little interesting and perhaps fun to watch.
