I also just did my maiden and what a nice flying machine. With the 16lbs mine came out at the Fuji did as well as can be expected. I did 4 13 minute flights on it and the engine was getting better with each flight.

During the first flight, completing a loop from a slow horizontal line and adding full power at the start I coulld not quite get over the top of the loop without staying level for a few feet to get airspeed back. By the 4th flight the engine was running better (no other tuning) and was easily pulling it through a nice big loop but at full power.

4 point rolls were a breeze, inverted needed just over a breath of down stick, full aileron rolls at book low rates were quick and medium rates were blinding and at both rates were very axial. Landings were as slow as one would expect for an Ultimate. In Knife Edge I needed just a touch of down elevator and it showed no tendency to roll out until I went to a hi alpha knife edge then it rolled in the same direction of the rudder.

All in all a very nice plane. I definitely ended up FAT but it performed exactly the way I expected it to. Now I know I said I was going to wait and toss in a bigger engine but I took it to the field with me along with two other planes and it kept calling for me. I ended up only flying the Ultimate so now my others are mad at me

Now for the single downside to today. You will notice in the last 2 pics that my left landing gear started to crack. All the landings were glass smooth but the field was a little rougher than usual do to the frost heave so it's a lot of little speed bumps out there, not big ones mind you.. I'm sure it's delaminating. I did not take any other pics but on the bench you can see that the left side is bowed more than the right and the left wing is lower than the right.

I agree with the others that a 50cc is what is needed if you really want to see what this machine can really do. I'll bet it will continue to get better with the Fuji but the Fuji will get replaced.

Here are all the specs

Fuji 43cc
20X8 APC standard blade
Hitech 5645's on all ailerons
Hitech 5945's on the elevators and rudder
Hangar 9 Titanium Pro-Links on everything but the rudder with Hangar 9 ball-links on servo side and Dubro 4-40 safety clevises on the control horn side
Stock control horns all around
1 Fromeco Lith-Ion 2400Mah battery in the stock location
1 Fromeco Lith-Ion 4800Mah battery mounted to the former just behind the rear wing mount
2 Fromeco Super Reliaswitches with the built in regulator set at 6 volts
1 1400Mah 4.8 Volt Sanyo MPI battery for the ignition mounted under the cowl opposite the muffler
Tested with a JR549 FM receiver to verify that there were no RF interference but flown with a JR649 SPCM receiver
All thows exactly by the book for low, high, and 3D rates
Stock spinner was way out of balance to the point it needed 3oz's to get it to balance so I replaced it with a 4" Tru-Turn Menz cut Ultimate spinner
CG right on the stock location (6 3/4 inches) with no added weight and only one rudder servo in the tail
Lateral balance needed nothing which was really surprising which also showed in the straight tracking through a very large slow loop

Total AUW dry was 16 pounds verified using 3 scales, my trusty fish scale showed 16.5lbs, so I guess it's not trusty anymore

Also I did not get a video since I could not get anyone to do it. sorry
