Default RE: c-160 transall

HOWDY
ive flown my C160 a few times and it flies just great.
ive got 25 LAs for power no problem at all,with 9x6 props.
im going to try 9x4 to see if i can slow it down abit.
i fly off a grass field.
there are 2 oz header tanks in the naucelles and the supplied tanks inside the fuse attached to the wing,the fuel draw is no problem.
i would suggest that before your first flight (new airplane) to make sure you have lots of up elevator throw,because of the horizontal stabalizer postion could cause the airplane to pitch down.
on mine i just reajusted the elevator to comensate for this.
the outer wing panels that were supposed to be glued onto the wing,i didnt do that.
i glued the small aluminum tubes in to the wing and glued the larger tobes to the outer wing panels,then when i push the panels into the wing i use a 2/56 bolt to hold the panels on palce.
this way the airplanes has a very short wing span and easier to transport.
thats it for now.

take care
