Default RE: FEJ very large F/A18 maiden

Hi Kev,
Congrats on the maiden, gald i was able to help. I was holding my breath hoping the jet would hang in there during the fluttering episode. Good job with the mayday and landing, you will get 200 flights now for sure !!! We talked at length about the first flight problems and going over the bolts with some blue locktite. This was not a FEJ issue, just something you missed during the assembly, you got lucky. All things considered the jet is HUGE and looks awesome in the air.FEJ has the best painter(s) in the arf industry, your hornet really looks the part. It will take a few more flights to get her dialed in so i hope you can get out there again soon.
