Default RE: senior telemaster build

The plane isn't hard to build but it does require a lot of hand shaping.

I maiden mine today. With a small wind and partial throttle on my Saito82 she lifted off in less than ten feet. The approach speed seemed little more than a fast walking pace. A real floater.

Mine weighed in at 9 pounds, 2 ounces so the wing loading is quite small. I'm going to add about 1 to 1.5 pounds to the fuselage before my next flight.

Have fun with your new toy.

Regards
