Took it out today for the maiden flight.
The engine, as seems to be with all small OSs, was a pain to hand start (I have to walk half a mile from the parking lot to the field, so a starter is out of the question), managing to drain 2 fully charged 2A glow starters, but not before a flight.

All I can say is that I have never EVER seen a MiniMag fly this fast![X(] Not even a fully hoped up brushless setup on 3S lipos one! It seemed more of a fast WW2 bird than a trainer; loops were made on a dime, super tight rolls (my first ones), simply WOW!

Still the OS will give way to my trusty ASP 12A, at least it's a decent runner and hand starter, or my PAW 09BR (still have to check if diesel will eat Elapor).
