Default Our Big Delta (82")

Here,s a picture of our big delta we built a couple of years ago
It has a span of 82", and a length of about 9 feet, weighs 26 lbs.
I designed it with the help of RcCad , and my sweet heart
(She told me what colors, and where to put the fins)
You can see more on my gallery.
Thanks

Yep, that's big allright......

So what was it like to fly? Good things? Bad things?

Perspiring minds need to know...

First few flights were a little scary, a little nose heavy.
Ok Ok a lot nose heavy. Still working out the bugs
CG , controll throws ect. My nerves arn't made of steel
mostly lite ply , and balsa. I am currently re working it
right now to try and loose some weight. Hopefully this
spring my nerves get better and the weather cooperates.
Maybe I can get some flight photos of it posted.

Thanks
