Great Day- Two Maidens In The Books
Yesterday was a great day!!!!!!! My Composite-ARF Lightning and BVM Mig 15 were maidened yesterday. The Lightning is powered by a JetCat Titan and the Mig by JetCat P-70. Both planes are built to manufacturer specs. We had some gusty winds but both planes handled it very well. Both are very good fliers and the engines performed flawlessly. I want to thank our trusty test pilot Andy and chief mechanic Miguel Santana, who always has to get his hands dirty to fix something.
Regards
Alex

Thanks Alejandro. First flights are always nerve wrecking. I am very glad everything went well. We ended up putting 3 flights on each plane.
Miguel, it's not a "maiden day" without you cleaning your hands!!!!!

Excellent! I'm also did 3 fligths yesterday with my new super eagle. What a great turbine I'm very happy with her. I have it installed in my now 32 fligths Boomer XL. I'm trying to get some smoke with the sullivan pump but the results are not satisfactory yet. Need to cange batt for bigger volt. and keep playing with the 5/32 brass tube and oil mix. I had lost your email and need some guidance in the smoke system. Pm me you email.
Gracias
Alejandro

Staale: I followed your thread closely before the maiden. I went with your recommended settings. They were spot on. Video will follow shortly, I still have to edit it.

Here are the video links. Unfortunately my usual friend who films my flights could not go, so another friend got the video. His skills are not too sharp yet 
. The Lightning video suffered the most. The Mig video turned out a bit better. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!
