Default RE: crop duster r/c

Hi Daywalker - I'm afraid I scratch built my canopy. Had a set of sketches from AirTractor's website and just started doing it.

We tried to fly yesterday (Flying Circuits Spring Open House) but the wind was somewhere around 20 with gusts to 30.

Today was a little bit better though, 10 to 15 (at least early), and so we did the Maiden Flight on mine. I'm afraid I was doing the video taping and so I only got one pic after she landed and was taxing back.

Ah Well, whe flew beautiful, just a little bit of trim, but hard to tell really with the winds. Scott said it flew nice and straight, with no bad tendencies. Thanks Scott!!

After we get back from vacation hopefully we'll have some of those really nice calm days and we can get her tuned in and then take some pics of it's 1st Slurry Drop
