Well, my buddy flew his maiden flight yesterday. Rather scary first time out. This one really pulls to the left on the take off run. His came in at just under 23lbs. This is with the Fuji 50, electric start (really neat), onboard battery for starter and smoke. After getting sorted out, it flew ok. Vertical is "Normal". Since it was cold and his fingers were getting numb, he didn't fly too long. It's now getting the required checkout before flying again.
