Default Long eze 46 by Richmodel

I would be interested to hear any comments on this model. I have about six flights on mine. It seems to fly well enough but sustains damage to the nose gear on every landing due mainly to very flimsy constuction. ( and possibly me). I am completely rebuildin the front end in the hopes of avoiding damage on every landing.

My book says 430 mm from the leading edge of the canard wing. I would tend to be forward of that point rather than rearward. I found it fairly easy to fly as long as the speed was kept up. When landing give it full DOWN elevator as soon as the mains are planted to keep the nose on the runway or it will try to fly again and stall just above the ground. GOOD LUCK
