RE: First PTS P51 flight that i got to fly
Getting ready for my P-51 PTS maiden flight this weekend.
I fixed the nose heavy problem by swapping the positions of the Rx and battery pack, then pushed them as far back as I could in the compartment. This seems to balance the plane so it is just slightly nose heavy.
I set the control surface throws. All required a max setting on the radio of +150% except the ailerons which needed +75% to achieve the proper throw.
For the maiden flight I plan on using zero degree flaps and I've removed the air brakes.
I'll post a post flight report with pics.
