Default RE: magister converted to glow

the maiden flight went good, it was a bit windy so I kept it short but the plane was great!!! it easily lifted at just over 1/2 throttle, and after I climbed to about 50 ft. I pulled it verticle and throttled up and watched it climb with no hesitations. the motor has more power then the plane needs. (yeah!!!) after about a 5 minute flight with mostly cruising and some full throttle blips I brought it in for a nice landing. I have a 10 oz. tank installed that was still 3/4 full after that flight. I figure I should be abil to get a good 15 min flight with some fuel in reserve for landing. man I don't know why I didn't do this sooner!!!

thanks for the tip on the sealing, the magister has a inner frame that is made out of some kind of composite or nylon, I'm more worried about the fuse since it's made of epp foam. here are some installation pictures.
