Default Maiden

Well had my maiden today aswell as another. Take off was solid and level flight achieved with a couple for clicks in right aileron. Landings with full flaps had the bounce where you run out of elevator and both time had to fix the front strut after it ripped away from the mount. All good though was expecting it. Flights were about 4mins and voltage per cell showed 3.9v, so really could stretch it to 6mins.
Also i did not use the rudder servos as they hadn’t arrived yet lol.
Setup is 2x NTM propdrive v2 4248
2x hobbywing 70a esc.
pull/push combo 3x13x8 master airscrew(nitro props)
static front wot was 62a
static front and rear wot achieved 102a at 1846watts.
Battery used is a turnigy 5s 5000mah 30c
I have fixed up the front strut, but will look for a stronger replacement. Anyone have any ideas?
I like this plane, just need to get more
familiar with it.
