Finally flew my 30cc Sbach
Wow what a great bird. I'm not gonna lie, this thing got my knees knocking! Once I got it trimmed out and let my heart settle down a bit, I flew a couple of circuits around the pattern. I decided to do a roll and WOW. That was faster than any other plane I have and that was only on low rates!! I'm glad I had enough expo. Although I have added a little more, due to my land being a little squirrelly. I was chasing the controls a bit because they were still a little touchy around center. I can't wait to go out again and get this thing dialed in so I can really get a feel for it. I didn't have the stones to go back up for a second flight. This plane made me feel like a rookie again...ha!!!!

RE: Finally flew my 30cc Sbach
I agree. The throws were just about perfect for flying. I just need to soften them up with some expo, for when I land. I really wanna get back out and get a good feel for it. Does this plane like coming in relatively slow or do you come in with some speed? My first landing attempt was too hot and I had to go around. The second one I was able to land but it was still a little quick. Any suggestions?
