Giles 202 Creekhobbies
Giles Fans,
Just want to share a few comments and pictures with you regarding the Giles 202 from Creekhobbies. The project is almost finished, however, the maiden flight had to be put off due to some epoxy that did not cure properly !?!? (happens, I probably didn't mix it right). I realized just before the flight that one of the ailerons didn't look right and after checking it again - oops - I decided to wait!
here is a picture. It's a beautiful plane with a ZDZ40 - should be plenty of power. The plane weights about 13.6 lbs, came out a little nose heavy so I moved the batteries (receiver, ignition and smoke) a bit back wards to avoid extra weight.
