RE: Ebay Rafale...?
Finally maidened the rafale today. Flew great! Didn't even need any trim. With the main gear bent out a bit, she rose off the ground quite quickly. The rolls are crisp and axial without the need of elevator correction. Landings are a breeze with this jet as it just sits nicely in high alpha flight. The inverted flight characteristics are pretty much identical to upright.
The stock power system on the stock battery is moving it along quite nicely with a decent climb rate. It is not blazing fast but not too slow either. I am really happy with the out come of todays flight. Now I just need to mod it to fly a larger battery for more flight time. I am sure this is going to open a whole new can of worms.
Thanks for all the help.
