I finally got my Matrix in the air, and just wanted to get back and let everyone know how it flew. GREAT!!, I have a Kingech 130G5, No VT and it came with pilots servos installed. One of the Pilot flap servos was bad from the start. So I cycled all the others just make sure they were good.
It did come out nose heavy putting the turbine battery on the tray up front. I guess if you have a larger engine and servos for the VT it might balance out. I flew it at recommend CG the using the supplied CG meters, whatever they are called. So flying on a grass field, short cut grass and wet from the morning due, and I was just going to test the nose wheel aliment and brakes, but it got light and jumped off the ground, but I thought it might. It trimmed with just a little up trim. One thing that surprised me, it needed down trim when full flaps and gear. I did not have enough down programmed in so I had to hold down to land it. Everything is good now. CG, to me it is kind of funny, If you have it at a good flying range the nose wheel is very light, not bad with a full tank of gas. T Green
