RE: TF Contender maidened
Congratulations,
Nothing like the feeling of something you built yourself taking to the sky and returning unscathed.
I have mine set up by the instructions for throw and I don't use any expo. I did need to mix in 7% down elevator with flap to stop it balooning.
I hope your enjoyment of the Contender continues for many years. I always have difficulty with orientation against cloud. Your scheme looks great but I couldn't fly it!
Cheers,
Colin
