I will be at Rogo Field on Sunday from about 11 am to about 2 pm. 
Happy to help if you need a hand with a maiden or trim flight.

HOT!!, sunshine, wind however light, was down the runway.

Jan and Mike Brodey were there when I arrived.  Then Noah, Simon C., Paul, Michael, David and Glenn rolled in to round out the team.

Major accomplishment: finally worked the bugs out of the Denight Special and had a great flight.  The power combination was solid.  No power interruption as experienced in the first 4 attempts. Thanks to Simon Chapman for his technical coaching.  This plane fell from Rob Dickinson's basement and into my car about 3 years ago.

Power: just big enough.  About a .50-ish motor with a 12x8 prop.  Bought at the Kitchener swap meet for $20
ESC- just enough amps.  No idea.  It is buried...but it works.
battery- 5 S 3300

Yes, Simon flew his electric Mix-Master (heli)

Congrats on a successful flight Frank - Sorry I couldn't be there to see the Denight fly.
That really is a beauty you and Rob D. have.
You never fail until you stop trying
