Default RE: ***CUB BROTHERHOOD***

I maidened my B.U.S.A. 1/4 scale J3 today That Gemini Twin sounds so nice purring along.. I am surprised at how quiet it is with no mufflers... I think this is the nicest flying 1/4 scale Cub I have built so far .. It only needed two clicks of rite and a few clicks of down to be hands off .. I had the jitters but they went away rite after lift off..Climb out was so easy ,straight ahead , no roll . I settled down and really started to enjoy the flight and started to do things that I normally don't do on a maiden like a hammer head and a roll . I brought it in quite early because I am not used to the Twin and I am not sure of how long the 16 oz tank will last .. The first landing was picture perfect.. So soft and genital , no bounce .. It was a very hot day so the air was thin but it didn't seem to matter .. Those big wings create a lot of lift.. All in all I am very happy and proud of the plane ..
