Default RE: Phoenix Edge 540 1.20

Well, I did my maiden flight the other day. The plane balanced almost perfect, but added a couple weights to the nose to make it swlight nose heavy. The plane flew great! I don't have much experience flying real rc airplanes, but can say this plane was really fun throwing it around.
I have a video. Now, This is my 5th flight ever flying the real thing so DON"T LAUGH!!!! LOL I have been into airplanes all my life and always wanted to do this, so it came a bit natural to me. 

  I am changing out the tail wheel system because it wouldn't steer the plane. I had to goose the throttle to use elevator.  The landings where smooth as butter. I am seriously looking foward to flying it again. I only had time for that one flight. My wife, not that good at using video camera and couldn't keep up with whatever i was doing. lol She'll get better.
