Yeah it's a nice plane. And a pretty good price. I'll have more pics later.

Sorry to those who were anticipating the maiden. I don't think it's going to endup being this weekend. As much as I want to fly it there are a few things going against me on this one. First homework. Second Mom. Third Parts. Still need to get a gas tank wheels some misc parts prop spinner. Other than that I should have all the assembly done by then.

Well just thought I'd let you guys who are close know. I plan to maiden it this Sunday. So those who are interested just email me and i'll send directions.

hmm, I think directions might be a little hard for me , but a vid would suffice

Yeah PA is just a little bit too far out of the way. It might have been better if you were in Ohio. I'll have video on Sunday or Monday.

The scheme is WAY lacking in the "Cool" department, but other than that it looks like it'll be fun. I see no reason why this wouldn't make a good e-conversion, as well - the weight is right...

Yeah I was going to go E, but the price just wasn't right so I went quick. But other than that the scheme is meant like a pattern plane.

Looking good! Earlier in the year, a couple of prototypes of this plane were passed around, I bought one and have flown it quite a bit. I haven't compared the one I have to a production plane, so I don't know what's been changed. The covering on mine is red, white, yellow and green. Yours looks a whole lot better. I flew mine E-powered for a while with about 1600W. Excellent 3D plane. Really stable in hover. Very little wing rock in upright harrier (bascially none). Snaps nicely. Overall, a great flying airplane, feels so much like a good 50CC. My only gripe is the LG plate, which falls out of mine at the slightest bumpy landing, but this was probably fixed along the way. Good luck with the maiden! |

Well as I stated I would get the maiden out of the way today. The new plane grelins were the worst I've had on a plane. But let's just say this will be a great plane with some adjustments. My real only gripe is the tailwheel. It sucked with my kit. But other than that the 125 performed with great results. With the plane so light it's almost overkill. Goes verticle like a bat out of hell. Great for 3D and precision. Other than that every aspect of toughness on this plane was tested. I nearly ripped out the landing gear on the maiden landing. Just killed the motor and stalled into a harrier then plunck. Just fell out of the sky. No damage just torqued the gear over fixed it and flew it again. Great roll rate. Nothing to complain except the tail wheel. I'll get the hardware used and ect.
