Default RE: Epsilon or Infinity

I have flown my Infinity about a dozen times so far. It is powered by a 1515/2y Neumotor turning a 19 x 12 with 10s3p battery. It weighs 8.5 lbs ready to fly. Power to spare.

As far as the way the plane flies, I can say it is the most axial rolling plane I have flown without differential. It holds knife edge easily without any mix so far. Point and slow rolls are effortless. The elevator response is very balanced either up or down. Sometimes a plane is more responsive one way or the other. The rudder is very effective. I am using about 40% expo on the rudder to calm it down. The up and down lines remain vertical. I haven't checked where my balance point is yet, but I like a very neutral balance point and this plane requires very little down stick inverted. The thrust angle is set to the nose cone and I don't find any issues with torquing in the up lines with the 19" prop. It is very easy to land. If you run more than a 17" prop, you will need a taller gear. The hardware in the kit is great. Ballbearing pushrod ends etc.

The build quality is like no other ARF I have seen. I checked the alignment of everything, tip to tip, etc and got less than 1 or 2 tenths of a degree difference. This is excellent. The plane is well designed structurally to be strong and light.

I would highly recommend it.
