1/2A Combat Plane
I finally flew my new 1/2A flying wing today. I am a C/L Combat flyer and have been flying a little RC for fun the past couple of years, but not much so far this year. Even when I was flying RC regularly, my skill level is a bit marginal for anything this quick and fast (and a 36 inch wing gets real small real fast if you are not turning toward home most of the time), but I got up and down 4 times with only a little wrinkling in the covering from one aborted takeoff.
The plane is about 280 sq in., 12&1/4 ounces, VA powered, 555 receiver, 250 MA battery and one HS 81 and one Expert SL300 servo (I'm not real clear on how I got different brands of servos in it).
If I could figure out how to get the attachment small enough to be accepted I would attach a photo, but that must also be beyond my skill level....
I have been reading this forum fairly often for a while and appreciate the tips and enthusiasm I see here.
