RE: Shrike Build
Hi Bob,
First testflight last Wednesday was almost its lkast. Too much aileron, not enough elevator, CG too far forward, and too windy!
Just got back from our regular Sunday morning session less than an hour ago and had four flights this time after making the corrections. Now 1/8" aileron each way - could use a fraction more, and a little over 1/4" elevator each way. I shifted the nicads back to underneath the aileron/elevator servos to get the CG right. It`s a lot better now.
I flew it mostly in tight low circuits, much like we intend to do for some low-key fun pylon type racing. The boys loved those long loooow beat-ups with rolling vertical climb out at the end and can`t wait to get started.
This sure is a fun little machine now. Every hoon should have one!
