Slyder, what rates(through's) did you use on the 34% for a first flight? CA gives no recommended rates for low or high. I'm not concerned about 3D rates, they are all in what you like. Did you use more up aileron then down? Yes after some thought I built a Columbo! Nice kit! BTW the instructions do [:@] but after you sit back and think it all comes together. I think its going to be a nice plane! I'll post pics soon.
