My first plane flies! [sm=what_smile.gif] Way cool. Can't hardly believe it, nearly tore it down then thought, trim down. Flies flat. Turns like it's on rails, no noticable wing dip. wide turns compared to stock aa, my road is 23' and it just barely makes it around. Slight descent through turns, shallow climb into wind. Got some short flights along my road, which doesn't have much lift potential anyhow, before it started pouring. Trimming out lower wing made all the difference. CG may be slightly too far forward, should be an easy adjust by moving lipo back. Thanks to all for encouragement, I'll weigh it tomorrow when I weigh the other stuff. Looks like I'm gonna have to buy the Thayer guys lunch, I'll need their scale for awhile! Now I'm thinking, I'll look into setting up a home server to show off some ntsc vids of it!! Kind of a cheat with the stock tail, but that won't last long. -John
