Sounds like you are doing wonderfully. Congratulations!

Already you have done better than I did on my first few flights. Of course the reason I made all those posts about reinforcing the plane is because I learned from fixing. I hope you avoid the lessons I had to learn.

The stretching is probably not a concern so I would put it out of my mind if I were you.

As for the duct tape, that is a little heavy. I would recommend removing that and putting a few wraps of clear packing tape to reinforce the boom. For this purpose it is stronger than the duct tape and much lighter.

Keep doing the kind of flying you are doing until you are very confident that every flight will be a good one. Get comfortable with more altitude as well. 200 feet is nothing.

Be at least 150 feet up before you loop so if you have a problem you have room to recover. Watch the video again and then try the tail slides and the chantel turns.

You are another tribute to the ease with which this plane can be flown and how quickly you can progress with it. Keep the posts coming and let us know how you are doing. If you keep going as you have, you will be attracting a crowd and soon the sky will be filled with Aerobirds and you will be the squadron leader.

Clear skies and good flying!
