Oh man ... that really sucks. That is why I usually maiden my planes at about 7:30 am. The air is always very still then. You are really having CG problems. I did not realise the plane was that tail heavy. Try the Extra 300 next time!!! Hehehee ...

I maiden my GWS Formosa yesterday, on stock motor and 2C li-poly, it flies do darn nice but needs more juice. I then borrowed a friends 3C and I burnt the motor. So I went to my RC car shop at a shopping mall to re-wire my new motor. They play cars at the top of the car park, about 250' x 100'. All my pals were there and I did the most absurd thing ... I took off. It was windy so after a couple of rolls I decided to land her. I was coming in nice then I misjudged the lamp posts!!! Hehehe ... oh well ... lucky I only need to slap on some glue to repair her. Hehehe ...
