Wanted to give you guys an update on the maiden. Weather was great, temp in the upper 50's, light wind blowing straight down the runway. After getting all the prelims out of the way, I taxied her out and lined it up. Rolled on the throttle and off she goes. Tracking on the ground was very straight and manageable and it lifts off quickly. Added a couple of clicks of right aeliron and several clicks of down elevator and it was trimmed as pretty as you please. I think the engine is a great match for the plane, plenty of power, plenty of verticle and boy does it sound great. With the uneven firing it sounds somewhat like a Harley, a perfect match for a plane called a hog! All in all, what a nice stable flying plane.
