Default RE: GP .60 Reactor Bibe

I did the maiden today even though it was overcast. What an awesome plane. Axial rolls, round loops, straight knife edge and almost lands itself. The only problem was that it is fast, even at quarter throttle. I changed the prop from a 16 X 6 to a 16 X 4W, but didn't fly it because of the visability.

I used a YS 110, Hitec 225's on the wing, 225MG on elevator, 5245MG on rudder. To get the CG in the middle, I added 4 oz to the tail. I'm thinking of adding a battery compartment near the tail to eliminate that dead weight. I think it also needs more stripes on the bottom to improve visability.

It's a keeper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
