Nice looking LongEZ. Did you have the prop on backwards? Best way to tell is that the curved surface goes forward. I am using APC props so cant judge by the writing on the prop. Its a 10x6 also, and mine is quite fast. Long takeoffs are just part of the planes inheritance from the full scale LongEZ. They have a bit longer takeoff roll too. glad to hear you had a successful first flight. Aren't the rolls nice and smooth? I didnt get a chance this week to fix my retract problems so I didn't get to fly mine this weekend.
