After many years in the hangar, Glenn (@electroflyer) zips his Komet around TEMAC last Tuesday.
Nice job, Glenn :D

Nice flying Glenn.


Has anyone seen Glenn wearing anything other than shorts? (Cue Andy!  ;) )

I had an issue with the front wheel. So now it's belly lander. Too bad. Those darn lock screws would not move like someone ca,d them in. I broke two allen wrenches and said f this. I added a skid and had to relocate the battery tray back to get cg with a 2100 pack. Not sure a 1300 would last more than 4 mins.

  I'm plan on flying the me163 again tomorrow.  I've made a few adjustments and think it will be even more fun to fly. I have the original instructions (in German) which I finally was able to translate. So I believe it will be easier to land. ;D

After seeing this fly on Sunday, I must admit that I'm very tempted to get one myself.  It was awesome.  :)
