I just got back from the maiden flight of my Hobby Hangar Gee Bee Model D. All I have to say is, it was nothing like I expected, except for the power, a Magnum .36 with an APC 9/6 which took it away like a bat out of hell. BTW, it was keeping up with a Stinger 40 with the throttle around 1/3.

There is a problem with the rudder though. When I push right it has the normal slight roll coupling but when I push left, even just a little, it falls out of the sky like the wing fell off. What could cause this? Evering thing apears to be straight.

The plane flies very well in all other aspects of flight. It's slow speed characteristics amazed me for this sort of plane. It slowed down to just about the speed of my Great Planes Stik. Ground handling will take some getting used to, well, a lot of getting used to.
