RE: Venom Build
I used ultra cote on this bird. I view it as a prototype, so I wanted the least amount of work to get it done. Bot was I wrong, Ultra cote is complete garbage, and I will never use it again.
On the bright side, I got her finished and I got the maiden flight in today.
I actually got in three flights.
All I can say is wow, with the piped ST 91 it is a real beast. It tracks straight and true, Vertical is unlimited and out of sight. No roll coupling with the rudder just as I intended. I can knife edge from one end of the field to the other. If I dial in a little more rudder throw I might attempt a knife edge loop. I am very happy with the flight performance so far.
I might build another one and paint it. LOL
Although I am not happy with the covering , I am very happy with the performance.
