Default RE: E-flite Apprentice

This one is a beautiful large ship, nice job on this one, it needs to have the correct COG Center Of Gravity, and intrim, have those ailerons flush, mine flew fantastic but I did have prior flying experience, if its your first aileron advise to have some assistance on the maiden, its important not only to have it set up correctly, but the aileron responses are abit different than example the 3 channel planes strongly suggested as starters before this one. Nothing like having a sizeable ship for nice visibility..ground launches and hand launch terrific....you won't go wrong on the selection of this ship...

For added info my favored models todate and progression of learning flight

Super Cub, amazing starter, later Night Flights, a grand opener
Apprentice, several flights on this one, huge and wonderful first aileron
Nexstar Mini, 44 inch, small some speed for a high wing, fun, balsa, love it
Eflite Alpha Sport 48 inch, balsa models fly amazingly well, penetrates winds as the Nexstar, great ship
Hangar 9 Mentor, flaps, ailerons, lands like an airliner, my top model todate, unbelieveable, balsa
