Hay RBean,
Nice to hear your finally putting some flight time on the model. Mine was awesome in the air...! I called Tomas and I am trying to order a new F6F. I have the retracts for it...and engine too. But I keep eyeing the F7F...and I drool all over myself...to the point its getting embarrassing. But to get the F7F model in house with Sierra Retracts (the best retracts made-IMHO) is close to $2K. I can do the F6F for $6 Mr. B's. Yet, I do have a match pair of DLE 20RA engines in house...Unless some one wants to buy my ESM F6F pneumatic Sierra rebuilt retracts...? I had a gear down, hit the tops of tall grass landing that totaled my F6F...and ripped the gear out of the wing-split the wing in two.. I was slow, with full flaps and a little power in...when the !#$%& grass jumped up and grabbed my model-I just hate it when that happens. I sent the landing gear into Sierra...and he rebuilt them for me and sent them back.
As soon as I hear from Tomas...I will pick up an new airframe.
Soft Landings Always,
Bobby of Maui
