Default RE: Freestyle Rush....Does Everything....Why buy a big plane??? VIDS

Well despite not having a manual for assembly (the supplied manual was for the Cessna Skymaster) I put my Freestyle Rush together and flew today. This is a nice flyng plane! I have my CG at 110mm (4.48 inches) and was wondering if this was within the range recommended by the manufacturer? I read that someone was flying with a CG of 140mm (5.71 inches). Any suggestions?

I found that the rolls are very axial and these seemed to be plenty of power with an OS 50 with an expansion muffler (Tower 46 muffler). Knife edge seems fine and even knife edge loops but they were a bit crooked. Flat spins were possible and rolling cuban eights as well.

I'm looking forward to more flights with this one, it's fun and cheap to run.

Cheers
