Default Update II (soloed on another model)

I soloed on my Falcon 56 last night. It is
a rocket (.46 OS FX in the nose). I fly it at about 1/10th throttle. It took off in about 15 feet at 1/2 throttle! I put such a huge engine in it because I want that engine for other models in the future. I love that OS FX, it is a sweet running engine with tons of power.

I'm looking forward to flying this upside down and doing other aerobatics with it. It has a semi-symmetrical wing and a lifting tail. Should be fun.

I am bummed when the sun goes down and the flying must stop. I guess this is a good thing!
