RE: Nexstar
Flight report.
I finally flew the NexStart today after a few mods. Primarily removing some of the exagerated right thrust and shimming of the nose gear assembly to accomadate the thrust angle adjustment. All I can say is it made a wonderful improvement. The aircraft tracked straight on takeoff roll with only a slight tendancy to drift left. I expect this under full throttle as to me the airplane is supposed to drift left. While in flight it had no tendancies to track funny. It did however NOT fly a good loop. It would track to the right and sometimes snap out of the loop. I am going to check lateral balance later and see if one wing is overly heavier than the other. But for the most part the plane has become much more predictable and will still fly quite well at a slow crawl.
Hopefully I will be able to mount some camera equipment in the plane as this was one of the primary reasons I got the plane as well as practice for me and training my son to fly.
Thanks
