Thanks, guys. Yeah, when I first was adjusting the trims before my first flight, I simply made sure that the rudder, elevator, and ailerons were even with their respective surfaces. On first takeoff, everthing was great. She only needed a bit of left aileron trim.

I wish I had digital trims, but for the time being I'm stuck with the archaic remotes that come with RTFs. In any event, I just ordered a tower trainer since it's 30 bucks less than the avistar and I think it's a better looking trainer, anyway. I have a nearly brand new tower .46abc that I got with my last bird a few years ago, but I may have fried it, I'm not sure. In any event, thanks for all the advice and support. I know that I'll never forget to check the trims, that's for sure!

Question, CA is essentially nail glue, right? I forgot to order some.


Lastly, I noticed on fly buys that when I went back up to full throttle I did not hear a very noticeble rise in RPMs on my OS 40 LA. Did I fry her? What are the signs of a fried engine? Thanks again. Much appreciated.
