I took the UCD up for the first time this week. It was awesome. It is so much easier to fly than the trainer I learned on. The landings were very slow and smooth. I tried to keep it pretty low keyed for those first few flights. Unfortunately I stayed in the throttle too much at one point resulting in flutter. It broke the horizontal stabilizer on both sides. I was luckky that it held together long enough for me to get it down. A little thin CA later and it was up in the air again. I may just have to build another stab.

One question. My .46 AX is not strong enough to pull out of a hover. It will hold it pretty well, but if it gets out of wack I don't have enough to bring it back. It will stall and fall out. What is a budget engine/ prop combo that will pull it out? I am at 1100 feet here. I was looking at the new .55 AX, but at 2.0hp I am not sure if it will pull it out of a hover.

Thanks,
