Default RE: JetCat Titan

Happy Thanksgiving.

just returned from getting a quickie out at the flying field. put 3 flights on my KingCat today with the Titan. The Titan will go into an F-4 in the near future so I'm using the King as an engine platform until it's ready.

The Titan performed beautifully. It has good power and throttles up at a good pace. I've flown the King with a 120 and can tell the Titan has a surplus of power over the 120. slow flight to vertical up-lines were accomplished easily.

The most distinguishing trait over the previous 120 I owned was the quicker throttle response. I felt comfortable enough with the throttle response on the first flight to shoot an approach to minimum altitude (and loaded the deck against the Titan by flying it essentially at idle) and then gunned it to waveoff. It passed the test in my book by keeping pace with my throttle movement.

thanks to John and Barry for their assitance.

more flights throughout the weekend.
