Default Seagull Spacewalker-A OK

Took my Seagull Spacewalker out last week for first flight. This is a nicely built ARF. Covering was a little wrinkled when I unpacked it but smoothed out nicely. The landing gear suppled is rather weak but and prevented me from flying much but when it was in the air it performed very well. Seemed real nice and stable like a Tiger 2. I'm not ibnto extreme aerobatics but I threw it around a little and was pleased with it's overall flight attitude. I have soldered the landing gear wire and will give it one more chance before changing. Also looks great on the ground and in the air. Can hardly wait for the rain to stop and get it back in the air. Would readily recommend this plane. FWIW

HI Adrian, took the Spacewalker out for the 2nd time yesterday and had a lot of trouble with the GMS 47. Had to dead stick it in and was very happy with the way the plane handled with not a lot of altitude. Turned nicely into the wind and settled down nicely-out in the cow pasture (dead Zone). Got lucky and landed in a rather flat spot. The landing gear held up ok with the soldering but will take your adbvice and change it the next time it gives a hint of trouble. Love this plane, you gotta try one. By the way I've now put in a TT.46 and the GMS is in the scrap pile wher it belonged 2 years ago.

yep - the tt46 is a good engine for the plane and we have it on the list.
