Default RE: RT Aerospace 1/5th T-34C Build

Finally flew my T-34 today. Not completely finished, but the details will come later. This is a sweet flying model. Very light feeling and grooves nicely. I ended up using Monokote on the wood parts (wing and tail). Painted the fuse and all the orange and black.
My flight today ended with a minor mishap. Seems my approach was a bit fast, so as I powered up to go around, the smoke came out of the speed controller and it lost power. Had a rough landing in the rough off the end of the runway, but no major damage.
Hope to have a vid to post later.
