Default RE: Foam Seawind EP from Great Planes...

I got mine in the air yesterday. I have the balance point about 3/8 in behind the CG recommended, Its flyable but in the hands of a novice it would be a real handful. I have a TeamOrion Avionics Wind MN brushless in mine. Its rated at 950 Kv and is a little lighter than the RimFire. I had a APC 8x4 prop on mine but I'm going to try the Factory prop next flight session. It wouldn't ROG at our field (very short mown grass). I'll give a report of the next flights I am going to try the CG alittle further forward1/8 inch or so.
