Well I finally got to maiden this plane yesterday. This plane wants to take off... I took it up 5 times, getting it adjusted the way I like on my transmitter. The strong cross winds made it difficult, I had to watch the wings to make sure the plane didn't get flipped on landing.

I definitely need practice landing the tail draggers... but that is what the Yak is for and it shouldn't be long before I am doing regular Touch and Go's with the Cub.

All in All.. I am VERY happy with this one... Should really help with training for level steady flight and landing heavy planes.  ;D

I may not be completely pleased with the covering... But it will do for now. Next will be to put all the decals on.

I will download all the Power figures, and give a final update to see how I did on calculating the electronics...

Thanks You everyone for all the help  8)

Sorry I missed the maiden... But I'm glad it went well

Congratulations Steve! I enjoyed watching all Bobby's maidens and especially yours as I've followed your build thread. Well done! :) ;) :D
