Default RE: Pilot RC 73


I maidened my SBach yesterday, finally. All went well, got her back after two flights, all in one piece. Found I am tail heavy. After the first flight, I moved the LiFe batts forward as far as I could and still was tail heavy. I will have to add some lead on the engine box for the next flights. Rearward CG sure helped the plane land super slow! Very nice looking plane, lots of compliments at the field. I think it will be one of my faves after I get the CG and further trimming worked out. Here is a pic at the field. Always take lots of pics before a maiden, lol! Jon
