RE: Impact
Today was a busy day of testing in southern NJ.
For anyone who has not flown their IMPACT yet you need not have any trepidations. I was delighted from the moment it left the ground. The only hard job was setting up the OS mix carb on a 42F March day.
The only flying-mix that I could see that would be needed was a tiny bit of proverse roll correction, and that only showed on a field long KE test. (probably about 2%)
Thanks to a first class incidence-setting job by George Asteris the plane flew great from the outset. Some planes just feel right as they leave the ground. This is one of them. Thanks to all of the throw-setting advice in the thread there was no real need to change anything. Spins were rudder and elevator only, The 2 turn reverse was as good as the pilot's timing.
It has the signature Pterodactyl "screech!" when you snap. Add your own "whoops"....
Regards,
Eric.
