Put in 3 more flights today. Added some weight to the right wingtip. Also changed the rudder - elevator mix a bit so rollers are better. Still a little mixing to go but it won't be long. This is by far the fastest I've been able to trim a model to where it is.

Hello,

We flew ours the Sunday before the JR and had 8 flights before the contest. Mark Lessburg flew Johns at the end of the Venice IMAC on sat and did a clinic on setting up a new plane. He had it dialed in 10min. Im glad your happy with it. The interest level is awesome right now. Keep us posted.

John, its nice to see that these new 300s are taking off good. I like the plane so much, I may be calling you for a kit soon, haha, but wont get to it until after the NATS of course.

flyguy, you are correct somebody needs to bring that grand champion award home for Aerotech, hope it is either you or me, haha just thought, maybe your dad could do a freestyle and win it, just remember to tell him to watch out for the trees on take off. lol
hope that foamy is working out for you, talk with you later.

Mike

Got another 3 flights on the 300 today. That makes 18 flights so far. The mixing is almost there and I'm learning the airframe all the time. Engine is almost through the 6th gallon of Lawnboy ashless. I am very impressed at the precision of this model. Very strong in all manouvers.
