Default My new planes first flight

Well I got my Sig LT-40 all done and took it on tuesday to go to the field for "class". What a blast!

The plane flew great and the new motor work beautifully. It deffinatly helps having the buddy box and a teacher. I will say though once that sucker is up there flying that plane really can fly it's self. Extreamly stable and fun to fly.

One of the guys there took a photo of her while the instructor did a fly by with it and hopefully I will get a copy of that soon, but next time I will take a few photos myself!

Steve, thats good to hear. I am working on an LT-40 too. I am almost done with the right wing. Then I am gonna join them together and start the fuse. Just bought a 7CAF radio. In about a month or so, I am gonna buy an OS .46 and club membership, then the finishing touches.....she's coming together slowly. My day will come too...soon.

Congrats again!

I have an evolution .46 motor and she does the plane great. The instructors took her out for her maiden fly and they were doing loops and roll overs with ease. Heck I get that good someday, but for right now I am just practising doing left hand turns. Hey it may not be much but I am learning.

Definalty join a club... it is worth it.
