Thanks Carrellh.
Woke up late this morning and the wind was really gusty. So grabbed the plane swearing and muttering under my breath about sleeping in and went out to the field. A lot of the guys were packing up and leaving as I got there, but three guys hung around and helped me out heaps. Tuned the 46AX for me as it used to run 15% nitro and I had bought a bottle of 10% by accident. In very little time after a range check etc my unofficial flight instructor Norm said he would take it up and trim it out for me, but the club buddy lead was nowhere to be found. So he took it up and got the TX trims sorted (non-computer radio) for me and bought her in for a landing. His first impression was it was very quick and I then mentioned the 11x8. So yeh I will be dropping the pitch back to an 11x5 as I have one of those and might grab a couple of props at the end of the week to play around with at a later stage.
But will keep the 11x8 in the toolbox for later anyway
All in all was awesome to see my plane fly at least. Bit disappointed I didnt get any stick time, but the wind had picked up to a pretty nasty pace and not constant wind it was really turbulent. So better to wait til next weekend and I will be sure to get to bed at a decent time so I can wake up at 5am instead of 10am
