Default RE: how often do you crash on your maidens?

hi all,

Interesting forum....I have lost a few planes over the years, only one on a maiden. I used to fall fowl of being too enthusiastic on the second or 3rd flight, without realy feeling the end of the flight envelope at higher altitiude...

Now i'm older and a little wiser, i like to keep the thing high up until i know what the flight characterstics are like...

JR flight modes are a great way to have all your bases covered in terms of throw and expo, theres nothing worse than having an over / under sensitive model on its first fllight!!

Happy landings
