Well i took it up for the first time today. i wish i could say it went better. the second it left the ground it was not wanting to lift. but with full throttle i was able to get it up. i leveled it off at about 25-30 feet and no sooner that i did that the engine quit! so here went my first dead stick landing. i accually did fairly well considering my lack of experience with this hobby but unforinutly the landing was a little rough and the nose bit hard. no damage to the airframe or covering itself but the motor mount seperated into three peices and in turn, tore the fiberglass cowl to peices. Any suggestions off hand as to why it just died like that. im pretty sure that the mixture was not really set right, could that have done it? let me know. thanks, Dave
