Default RE: ASM DH-88 Comet

I flew my Comet on Sunday! The first flight was short because of engine issues (which I found out later to be a bad check valve). It is powered by YS 63s turning 12x6 APC props. Take off was at about 1/3 throttle and the plane was very stable. Cornering was impressive, very little adverse yaw.

I dipped the left wing just before it touched down so will need to keep on the power just a little longer. Other than that very smooth.

Really looks good in the air! I have a [link=http://www.rcuvideos.com/item/QQXJSB42TRQNWJ6R]video[/link] of the flight....sorry about the quality. Hopefully it is enough to get a good look.
