SINCE TOWER HOBBIES HAS A GREAT PRICE ON THE KYOSHO AT6
AND OUR CLUBS UPCOMING WARBIRD MEET; I HAD TO TRY ONE.
THIS IS A REAL NICE LOOKING PLANE . WENT TOGETHER WELL
AND HARDWARE WAS USEABLE.
INSTALLED OS60FX SIDE MOUNTED WITH PITTS STYLE MUFFLER. HAD TO ADD 5OZ. OF WEIGHT TO THE NOSE TO GET IT TO BALANCE 3 1/2 INCHES FROM SIDES OF FUSELAGE.
FIRST TEST FLIGHT REALLY SURPRISED ME AS EVERYONE WAS SKEPTICAL ABOUT THE FLIGHT CHARACTERISTICS OF THIS MODEL.
WELL, IT TRACKED EXTREMELY WELL ON TAKE OFF, FEEDING POWER IN SLOWLY AT FIRST. SHE LIFTED OFF AND CLIMBED OUT
WITH AUTHORITY, AND WAS VERY STABLE IN THE AIR. BROUGHT IT IN A LITTLE HOT AND IT WAS DOWN WITH A COUPLE OF BOUNCES (PILOT).
IF YOU LIKE THIS AIRPLANE " GO FOR IT". JUST MAKE SURE TO CHECK THAT CG, IT WILL PROBABLY TAKE A LOT OF WEIGHT UP FRONT.
I THINK I WILL REALLY LIKE THIS PLANE!
