Hey Nev!
Another Hurri-bird? It doesn't seeem fair! How did number one fly? I haven't seen a flight report yet. Since your retract bases are light blue (and as I recall your first Hurri was light blue) are they from that one? I still haven't started on mine other than collecting all the peices. I should have my scale exhausts from Keleo-creations in the next month or so. Please keep us all updated on your progress.
Thanks
Sam

Neville,
Glad you are keeping the Hurri's alive! I have been flying mine. Cg is 4.5 inches from the leading edge at the fus. I built the wing and stab as per Roy's plans as far as the Incidence numbers go. The Hurri flies very well this way. My Hurri does not like a lot of flaps. I personally like to "Drag" my airplanes home using a lot of flaps. Not so with the Hurri. I'm flaring at about 25% power or so With little flaps. If you want to talk Hurri's, just PM me.
Take Care.
