Default RE: Sig Rascal 110

I got the Rascal out today and it was an interesting day to say the least. The first flight was a no brainer needing only 2 clicks of left Aileron. After a few minutes in the air I thought I would land and just give everything the once over. Good thing I did, the screw in the servo arm on the right Aileron had backed out half way. After using some locktite on the two Aileron servo screws it was off for another flight. After trying some touch and goes I thought I would land and check everything once again. By this time the wind had picked up pretty good so once I landed I clipped the wire fence that lines our runway and broke my nice white 18X6 XOAR prop. I put on an APC 17X6 prop and tweaked the G26 until I was getting around 9400-9600 rpm on top end. At this point I'm having a ball with the Rascal and let two of my flying buddies have their go at the Rascal and they seem to like it pretty well. The rudder sure is very effective in knive edge flight and the landings are very slow and stable. It was to windy to try anything crazy but there's always another day. You gotta love these Rascals .
