WildHare had the video link to Bill Hempel flying the 260. I've seen 2 videos of him flying it, gives you a good idea of the plane. One video was a demo of IMAC and 3D flying with it and the other video was the famous 1 wing flying when he lost a wing during flight and flew it in knife edge and landed it. I found the "1 wing" video, but I still haven't found the other one. I'll keep looking.
I have this 260 also with a ZDZ Super 80. Awesome flyer. I have 15 flights on it and have had it down for maintenance for a little while for cosmetic things and repositioning batteries, etc. It should be back flying in a few days. I had the CG about 3 3/4" to 4" from the leading edge at the wingtip and that's nice for precision and IMAC style, but I think I can eliminate a little more wing rock by moving it back some more. It hovers very nice already though. We'll see how the new CG setting works out.
Where is your CG set?
Thanks

I'll definitely be shooting video as soon as I finish tweaking mine and get the last 2 gals. of break in fuel through the engine. I'll post it here whenever I get it edited.
