That looks very nice Sandor, can't wait to get my hands on a set

I was out today doing the maiden of my Viperjet!
Yihaa, that is one nice plane, it flies so nice and true, a real blast !

The P200SX is sick power, it gives the plane great authority, you never have the feeling that you need more power, you have all you could ever want!
Verticals, well, they are vertical (Hill climbing to some [8D])

I got two flights on it, sometime during the second flight, half of the canopy blew off!
I might have been the bad glue, I don't know, but please make sure to add extra on yours !
I didn't even notice it in flight that it was missing, it was first after landing I noticed it.

Guidance is with a Futaba 14MZ and Weatronic 12-22 receiver

I used the settings from the manual, only difference was I went with +/- 20 mm on the ailerons (30% exponential on all surfaces), flaps was 15 and 45 degrees, with 3% downtrim at 15deg flap, and 6% downtrim on 45 deg flaps (as previously noted).
CG was set at 240 mm.

I'm a VERY happy camper, that now NEEDS A NEW CANOPY GLASS, SANDOR ARE YOU LISTENING

congrats buddy , i told you it was a good choice to go for the 200..
will unpack tommorow and search for the canopy will send it with the light set..
