Default RE: Comp-Arf 2.3 Extra

Bubba, thanks for the kind words and your photos. I had the chance to fly a couple of these awhile back in Dubai, one owned by a friend powered by a 3W 70 on a can but because of the wing tube the can was mounted behind it with a long header. It didn't seem to pull very hard and in fact his colleagues on a DA 50 and can performed ( IMAC ) style manoeuvres very well and all this with a pretty high density altitude as the temp. was around 105 degrees F. My friend binned his and now has another under way, this time on a stock muffler and he tells it's pulling hard.

Mine is a little nose heavy at the moment but this will do for the tests flights and will move it back in due course. I chose this setup as I had seen the exact same setup at an IMAC contest here in Australia and it performed very well. If it doesn't have enough berries maybe a little nitrous will help. Just joking. Cheers
