Default Red Leader Comp Eurofighter maiden/video

Hi guys!
I maidened my Eurofighter this week, and it really flies well and with authority with the Wren 44 Gold!
The first flights revealed that the CG needed to be moved, so I changed the layout and got my battery
packs further back. With the new CG at 320 mm behind the lower intake lip, the plane seemed
much better yesterday, but we had some rather heavy wind, and that affected the model quite a lot!

I am really looking forward to a nice, quiet day to test its capabilities for real. I am very happy with the
model, it's great to have a small model that you can transport fully assembled and fly 3 minutes after
you arrive at the field!!
I really hope the this model will be put back in production, it's too good to be missed!

Here are some pictures and a short video from yesterdays flight:
