First flight of the Magnum... Wow!
Thanks to everyone who helped me get my magnum going. I had the first flight yesterday- total success! Lake Superior has 18 inches of ice on it. It was actually quite warm, about 26 degrees F. No wind, and not a cloud in the sky. The person launching it only had to let it go. It flew straight as an arrow, no trim needed. This thing is fast! I had to keep turning to keep it in sight. After a few minutes, the plane landed perfectly on the smooth ice. Right now I am using an APC 9x9. Is this too much prop? Thanks, Hans
BTW, the ice fishermen said it was going 250 mph... Of course they are mistaken, but this thing certainly looks fast.
