Good flying little plane. I prefer larger planes, but this is my little beater plane.

I have a Saito 91 in mine running a 13x6MA and plan to put a 14x6APC prop on it. That should let it hover at about 1.2 throttle.

I have micro servos in the tail 2 on the elev, 1 on rudder. This kept me from having to add any weight at all. I will sson replace the heavy throttle servo with a micro. Also added 2 micro servos in the ailerons, just opened up the hole a little bit.

The one thing I would do with this plane, is add flying wires on the vert and horz stab. They flex way to much and if you use the larger engines, may find them snapping on you. It will fly much better with them on.

Even with an OS 46, this should be a hot little plane.
