Is that some carbon fiber gear you have on the plane? If so, who made it and how do you like it?

Someday you will get that plane trimmed out and then with enough parctice you will fly straight and smooth with the wings level like I do!

Great video!

yes it is Carbon,, I order it from Graph tech!!! I was really scared of getting it because of all the bad things I heard outhere about CF LG but now that I own one I can tell you it's bull $#@$@,, this gears it's awsome,,, it is plenty of strong it's so strong that I have been doing some harrier Landings with it and no problems at all!!!!

The reason I got it is because I wanted to get rid of some more weight,,, and I saved 1/2lb just on the gear, it also makes the plane look bigger since it's a littel bit taller than the stock alum. one!!


and Cobra1!!! what's trimming a plane????

Your my hero . You can tell from your first vid to this one that your confort level and skill is more and more. I'm finally to the point also that I can and am confortable torque rolling my edge like a top only a couple feet off the ground . Took a while (like 300 flights), but I finally think I have it dialed in. Also put in on a major diet which REALLY turned it into a new plane. Up until a week ago it weighed a whopping 21 lbs/ (lots of dead weight-1 1/2 lbs in the tail for balast, heavy gear now drilled out, heavy spinner now lightened, smoke-no more, 2 reciever batts-now one, extra wood for reciever try-gone, all stock wood for servo trays ect. now gone, servo in tail for balast. Now.it weghs 17lbs 10oz. with a full 16 oz tank. Flys completely better....way more nimble and pops out of a hover where before it felt very heavy hovering, sluggish, and just mushed up and out (Brison 3.2). I'm loving this plane even more so now . With all carbon I will be in the 16"s with fuel and ready to fly....can't wait .

yea!! i got a lot better with this plane since the miden flight!!!! I really lost count of how many flight I got i only keep track of how much fuel i use since it's much easier and so far i got like 6 gallons!!! and that's a lot of flying since it uses 16oz in about 20+ minutes!!! so it's a lot of hrs of flying!!!

My 1st flight I think it was at 4 1/4 or whatever the manual said for recomended CG but now I'm at 6'' and it could still be more tail heavy and be fine!!! I think this plane will fly just fine at 6 1/2'' or even 7''
