I maidened 2 planes today. first was the das plas stik. I didnt check the ailerons and they were backwards, man what a rush. I got it back down, got the servo reversed and man what a fast, snappy plane. then I took up my modified debonair, flat, semetrical wing and its a taildrager, it flew great, just a little ot of wack on the elevator, nothing major, a minor adjustment. keep in mind the fastest plane I have ever flown was my trainer. never a flat wing or fully symetrical or a taildrager, I have been flying the trainer for a month. I used to fly 20 yrs ago but never advance beyond a trainer then. how are photo's posted ? I need to post pics of my modified deb

what a great day!!!

it cleared up enough to fly. it was pretty clear actually. I was at the thunderhawks field on spruce. the foothills were clearly visible. where do you fly? I hear tulare has a nice field. I go to porterville occasionaly. these spads are great for learning
