Default RE: FuntanaS 40 is FUN

Thanks guys. We are heading out again this afternoon. I installed my cowling last night because I think I am going to be happy with te 61 on the front. It does sure have enough power and I needed to tweak it before I butcher the cowling up. I then moved my CG back to 6 inches for testing today. Unfortunately I did not have time last night to actually get stuck into the radio. But I finish work a lot earlier than all my friends so i will have some time at the field to play with mixing before everyone else gets there. I also have some stick on lead with me so if it calls for I can move the CG back a little bit more. I despised the fact that I couldn't get the tail out under the bird down on the deck because I soooooo LOVE the way this plane torque rolls. It really makes for a nice sight.

I just hope this plane doesn't want to bite me again. The maiden sure was hairy but I feel MUCH more confident now that i've flown it a few times. I think the real fun is just about to begin.

Oh I've just printed out the discussion. So this weekend will consist of alot of mixing and tweaking. Monday I'm bound to bring you guys good results.

Thanks for all the help!
