Hi Guys,

We got DA running like clockwork, had to put test flight off for a few days as had loose tyres on hubs and they where catching bigtime when loaded on lg, best to be safe than sorry. Anyway have moved battery back to manual position as the cowl wouldnt go on with battery on side of engine box. Ive left left 160grams nose weight (which is same as spinner). Anyway this should be ok i hope, will silicoln tyres on hubs then finger balance and then fly.

Going to fly midweek so will report back, hopefully the plane wont shock me being tail heavy.
