Sweet! I had it out today for a bit. Zero wind, so it was some very nice flying. I put it on high rates and really started getting a feel for the plane. I was doing low inverted passes over the runway, and trying to get used to hovering.
By the way, the .46 AX gives the Spirit unlimited vertical. Using a 12x4 prop. About 3 clicks above half throttle will get it to hover.
Couldn't get the plane to knife edge at all. Every time I'd roll on the side and hit the rudder, it would start dipping towards the ground. I suppose one of the guys at the field will have to help me out on that one. Nose heavy perhaps? Not enough throttle?
Very happy with the plane. I went to this from my Avistar, so it will be nice to fly while I build my Four Star 60.
Can you adjust for more rudder? Move pushrod to different holes or adjust EPA or both. Make sure it doesn't hit the elevator.
