Default RE: ARC Jupiter

Hey Red, thanks for the tip. I discussed with a club member today and he basically showed a similar technique. The landing block holds fine today after some minor modifications. Here is the Jupiter just after the landing. It looks messy because one of the muffler bolt loosen up and the oil spits. Otherwise, it is a pleasant Saturday flying with light wind. I did lots of high speed low pass today, just a few inch above the runway and pulled up suddenly that blasted the electric birds away. Yahooooo!!!! Its large wings lend it stability; it tracks nicely at very low attitude. I really can't get a lot of speed out of it, but it is beautiful on every low passing by.
