Default RE: Super Skybolt ARF

Well, i maidened my Skybolt today and made 4 successful flights. I took a gamble with the CofG slightly rearward of the suggested starting point (using my uncalibrated fingers) and it was fine. If anything, i could probably go back further.

Anyways, the Skybolt flys great. I'm wrapped with it.

The OS .75AX had plenty of power. I tached the APC 14x6 at 10,000rpm before the first flight. It's actually quite fast and i spent a lot of time less than half throttle except on the uplines where 3/4 worked well. Full power gave it pretty impressive vertical.
