Default My New Toy E-flite Carbon-Z Scimitar

Just finished assembling my new toy the E[/b]-flite[/b] Carbon-Z Scimitar

Took me all of 90 minutes

I fitted the fixed undercarriage but am waiting on delivery of the E Flite Electric retracts.

I feel a trip to a very cold flying field is in order very shortly.

Set up the mixed as suggested in the manual as this is going to be a hot plane to get in the air but can't wait to throw it around the british winter sky

Exactly as per the instructions including mixing in aileron with throttle to allow for torque rollMaiden should be interestingUsing a flight power 3700mah battery pack first which puts the CG right at the front and then I'll try a 3300mah which puts the cg at the rearWill report on maidens when the weather brakes. Hopefully get a video if I can find someone who isn't shivering
