Hello,

First takeoff.

Takeoff with 50% Throttle (Engine Mintor 220cc) and with 15° Flap.
When takeoff I loss 2 back mufflers extensions.
On the landing the engine stop on idle.
So landing without engine with 15° Flap.
The engine stop on 80 meters altitude.
Hi glide like a glider, very stable.
55km/h on landing speed.
Nothing to say because it' fly like a big trainer.

One thing very important is the speed, do not fly more than 160km/h.
On 163.4km/h I have a small fluttering on the stab and elevator.
Little reparation to do on the tail section but nothing serious.

Landings video coming next with the engine stop.
