Opfor;

Well I had my first flight last weekend with the A-10. Had our best pilot take it off for me. (too nervous). I had the LA .46 on it with the perry pump and a perry carb. I tried that motor with a friends os .25 carb and it ran not too bad so I purchased a perry carb. Again it ran so so but the idle was the pits. It flew with this set up and needed about 60' to get air born on a grass field. Had to fly at full throttle though. It looked great in the air. You sure knew what it was unlike most planes. Ended up with a dead stick though because of that poor idle. ......................Plane is ok but I just spent several hours putting a TT.46 on the plane and will try it again I hope this weekend. If you are building one now I would highly recommend putting lightening holes in the rear fuselage and tail feathers. You may only think you are saving 3 oz but thats also about 4 1/2 oz in the nose for a total of 7 1/2 oz. Before I added the lead my A-10 came in at a little over 6 pounds. With the LA .46 on it, it was 7 lbs, with the TT.46 it is now 7 lbs 13 oz. ouch. You may have guessed the La .46 I felt was not powerful enough, I guess that's what others tried to say here on RC Universe. By the way the TT.46 idles good with the perry pump.
