Hey I just got ito power flight after 5 years off of slope soaring. I got a graupner extra 300s with a TT61 the first flight was a disaster the horizontal stab snapped off after 3 circuts (plane destroyed but GP sent me a new one)plus being a tail dragger it was squirly on take off my second atempt was bad over corrected on takeoff and laid it down no problem. So i decieded I needed more stick time got a super stunts ran 2 gallons thru it until I hit a power line,(another story) . I then built a Daspadstick and this honed my skills backup. Now I am readyfor my maidenflight on exta it should beno problem.
By the way this is my 3rd week of flying power
