Speed-panzer,

thanks a lot for explict information about You GBY. I would like to see the pics of the plane. Could You send them to my e-mail? You have it on PM.

" the rudder of my plane has some built-in warp, so it is a bit difficult to say what is neutral position... ", I have the same problem too. Even worse, the left wing is twisted too (washout cca -1°). So i needed some right aileron-trim. I am trying to correct the error now (to twist both wings to washout -0,5°)

I have broken the structure supporting the landing gears two times: both on dead-stick landing outside landing area (Its dangerous to fly too low with the engine not finaly setted up.

I have much smaller engine on my ship: OS FT 1.60, turning MenzS on 8.000rpm and giving thrust of 6 kg. It looks like perfect combo for scale flying (model weight is 6 kg too).

Hardly waiting for pics.

Milos
