Dazzler flew great.
While I was at the field, I found someone to give the Dazzler her first flight, and the thing did great. I never test fly my own planes, at least not yet. I sent her up with an 11x6, and agree that she would serve me better with a 4 pitch. the test pilot had very positive things to say about the flight and my build and original set-up, so that makes me feel good. I got in some stick time on my trainer, (been 18 years since I flew last.) I think I am about ready to move on to the Tiger, and then the Dazzler. I think I have 2 good fun type planes to hold me over till the profiler I get in a couple weeks gets built, and my skills improve.
Walked away feeling very good about my chosen type of flying, and that Im in for alot of fun, as well as learning from you probro's.
Thanks for letting me rambal here abit.
Here is a pic of the finished plane.

No pastel colors for me!
At first I thought these colors would look cool, but now that I have seen her in the air, I think she is way to light colored.
Still think she looks good though.

I dont know if our old bathroom scale is very accurate, but it say mine weighs in at 4 1/2#, it also said my Tiger weighed in at 5#.
4 1/2 # is heavier then I was aiming for with the dazzler, but I tend to use alot of glue so I am going to have to work on that, but I dont think there is 1/2# of glue in it...hahahaha
