Default RE: JET LEGEND VIPER BUILD THREAD

Hi
Flew the viper for the first time today.
Just so good to fly, no vices at all. Powered by a Jet Legends T12, well over poweredreally.....
2 clicks of aileron was all that was needed. It felt so good that after 3 circuits i was in for a low pass :-)
First landing was smooth and right in front of us.

Cof g 20mm behind centre of spar felt a little nose heavy when inverted.

Elevator20mm 30% expo reduced to 20% after first flight.

Flaps 20mm take off plus 3mm down elevator, 50mm landing with 5mm down and 6 mm crow.

Aileron 20mm plus 30% expo

Rudder as much as i could get plus 25% expo.

Had a fuel problem on the second flight and the turbine was very slow to respond (shut down).
Second landing was fast with a small bounce, but very controlable.
