Default RE: U-Can-Do 3d 46?

Dougwill, I have the Katana 40 size and have to say that yesterday was my day of flying. Man I had fun!! What a kick!
Oh, I got the tetherite LG set from Ohio Model Planes. Here's the link - [link]http://ohiomodelplanes.com/tetherite/[/link]
I flew the Katana once and then got out the UCD but the Do really didn't seem to fly the same as it usually does. It just seemed to be acting funny and not as easy to control as usuall so I set it aside and flew the Katana most of the day. Later I was talking to a more experienced guy about the Do and how it was acting and he said that the Futaba 3004 servos that I have been using for the elevators had probably stripped a gear or tooth or something. That sounds pretty likely. Yikes! [X(] I might have lost my plane if I had kept flying it..... [:-]
But that Katana profile.......[X(] Boy is that ever fun to fly. I can do lots of stuff with it. I set it down on the grass after one of the flights and next thing I know I had about 5 guys standing over it looking at it and asking questions. Very fun... not as fun as the Do of course, but very fun.
