Flown it yet with the DA50??

Yeah, I got 1.5 flights on it Saturday. I neglected to replace the stopper in my 20oz Dubro fuel tank and it melted by the 2nd flight.........I noticed black crap in my fuel line and immediately knew what had happened.

But from what I can tell this plane is gonna be really nice. The vertical is absolutely insane with this motor. I'm going to program a very flat throttle curve into my 9Z before flying next time.

I will also have my Lipo battery setup before I flew it next which will shave off .5lbs bringing it to 13lbs even.

I'll make sure and share more details once I have a chance to check it out some more.......work the bugs out so to speak.
