RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build
Aaron, good first flight it sounds like. My club pres. also is a 3d nut and he usually gets the maiden flights on my birds. Move that CG fwd, add some expo 30% maybe and you won't believe the difference 1/8" to 1/4" inch will make in the flight performance. He flew my B the first time, said move the CG ahead 1/8" and it was like night and day. Good luck, good flying! You know the trick with 3d to go inverted to check CG. Works here too. Just get 3 mistakes high, roll her over, try to keep your knees from knocking, and hands from shanking, and see what she does. Once you get her dialed in, it is just plain fun to fly. Keep us up to date. I hope to have the D I am working on ready soon. Just getting servos and motor together.
