Default 3 flights today



Got mine to the field today, nice day for a maiden flight and all went extremely well. After 6 or 8 three minute runs in the garage the past few weeks the rcgf 60 twin is starting to loosen up and was starting pretty easily with a hand flip. The first flight went well, I didn't touch the trims and landed easily with no issues. The plane is very stable and predictable. Before the second flight I took some of the expo out as the ailerons and elevator were a little soft for my flying style. The second and third flights were great and the plane handled well in the wind that gusted up to 10-15 mph during the last flight. CG is right on the spot they suggested with the little tools they provide. To get there I had to put 8 ozs in the tail hatch area. All up weight is 26 lbs dry. The plane gets a lot of looks and attention at the field. I'm going to say it's a keeper!
