Hideho all,
Sorry I haven't gotten this posted earlier, I've been bedridden with pnemounia the last week or so. I had a friend do the editing, not my first choice of music, I apologize to all whom it offends in advance.

Sorry, bandwith limit reached.

Great video. Nice flying.

I see you are using a 6ch reciever, are you using dual aileron servos, and if so, how do you have them mixed?

Excellent Flying Mike, I,m working on a Sorta Tensor right now and this gives me that much more incentive to push foward with the project. I will be using the Himax 2808-980 Outrunner on it with all the other electronics the same as yours.Thanks For The Video Yogi

How it going Mike, hope your doing better..Long time no see bud..
Tensor in an awesome plane w/o a doubt, the outrunner is a very efficient powerful motor option..for short burst vertical. Knife edge is extremely nice as well as nice axial rolls and most anything. I see your honing on on this one..[8D]

We all moved ours back to 3" instead of the recommended 2 1/4-2 1/2" thats recommended. it flys MUCH MUCH better. Doesnt drop the nose on slow speed landings.

If you notice in his video, at the end with the landing how it nosed over....im betting he had the CG set in the recommended spot. If he moves it back, it wont nose over on the landing like that.

Nice video of flying the Tensor, looks good. i just picked one up today at the Hobby Shop. I actaully went there to get some stuff I needed to start my E-flite Ultimate kit, but I'm putting this one together instead first. It should be flying tomorrow. Cannot wait! Im using an Axi 2208/34 and 3 cell 1320TP. Its the same setup thats in my shocky except I use the 860s.
