RE: Passport 2010 Glo Version
I finished the airframe over the weekend. Motor mount is Hyde LR-85. OS200S-FI engine with Hatori pipe and Header for OS. Futaba 14Mz FASST radio.
I made 5 flights on Sunday. Flight 1 was a trimming exercise.... no need to mix during initial flight. Flights 2-5 were flying the FAI Prelim and Finals patterns. Flight characteristics are excellent... neutral on all axis... stable .... definitely the one of best airplane I have flown. Easier to fly than my Aries.
Quality of the airframe is outstanding. Wings came in at 15.1 oz ready to fly with Futaba 9150 servos and the SFGs.
Thanks to Marcelo and CA models for an outstanding model... Thanks to Chip for convincing me to go for a Ready-to-Fly airplane.... I could not have built as good an airplane.
