Katana 70 Size Profile Test Flight
Today I test flew my Katana 70 from TMPRO. She is powered by a YS110 supercharge. Took a while to finally get the motor tuned right. But we when did she had the power. Hovers just a couple of clicks off idle. Of course I didnt hover or do anything till after the third tank of fuel. I think she needs a bit more tail weight to do the flat spins and tighter loops though. But everything else is just dang perfect. About 7:30 pm I was flying it for the last time and it quit on me. I think it leaned out on me. I will adjust it before the next flight.
Also today I flew my Extra 260 5 times. Practice some basic imac manuvers and then 3d it. That was my day of flying. 10:15 am to 8:00 pm.

Re: Katana 70 Size Profile Test Flight
Yeah, sounds pretty close to my day. I was able to do some better stuff with my Twist. I think I need more power. It's only got a 46 AX. I think it would do better with the new 55 fx.
Oh and I was able to test fly, Tom Facett's, (from Wild Hare), Cap. it had the new Toc 53 on it and it was great. Flew that a few times. Definately see a new plane in my future. |
