Default Fusion 67 finished in Mexico!!

Took me a litlle longer than normal(which is too long also) but finally the big Fusion is done
This thing is BIG
This is the biggest plane built for my self and I do believe is a good work.
Thanks to Mike and Jhon at OMP for helping me to get this plane all the way to Mexico.
Maiden report will be next week.
Here are some pics with my now small Fusion.
Saludos.

I'm just returning from the field where I maidened my Fusion.
This is the biggest plane I have ever flown. I'm really impressed how smooth and relaxing it is.
Compared to the small Fusion looks like everything is happening in slow motionˇˇˇˇˇ
The YS is performing really reliable, have a really big, strong, powerfull, more than enough, Bro-like Power
I can hover the plane and the 110 looks like is working in high idle. Just hit the stick a litlle bit and the plane is climbing like an angry bee.
Needed one click on the ailerons and 2 on the elevator.
Flies really neutral and tracks like a train.
Elevators are rock solid, harriering has just a small hint of rocking but Im still getting used to the plane.
Hovering is really easy.
This is a reallly cool plane and comes from a great designer.
Tomorrow I will continue the testing.
Saludos.

I'm using Futaba 3151 one in each elevator and look like they are working really good, It feels precise and solid. The plane is very well balanced with 2 servos for the elevators and the YS 110. The battery in in the leading edge of the wing and needs a very small down elevator input when is inverted. I will try to move the battery to the back of the wing. I want it to fly neutral which is the ay the small one is adjusted and flies really well.
On the rudder I'm using a Futaba 9402 wich is very fast working with 6 volts.
The ailerons are using Hobbico's 140 digitals and this are very precise and solid, the only drawback is that they are prone to vibrate in sincrony, but doesn't affects the flight were they don't vibrate at all.
Looks like the airload keep them steady.
Thanks for the kind words on the scheme.
Saludos.

Thanks again Voodoo. By coincidence John Drake took a white Fusion and trimmed it like the Krill Katana scheme using blue and red ultracoat. Looks really nice. He also made that one electric using some big Hacker motor.

Bolio, I have been flying the same combination you have, I have 6 gallons worth of flights and it will challange your imagination. Have fun, it has the "Mild to Wild" design. You could use this to compete in entry Pattern!

Smart design, great people!

The more I flown it, the more I love it. I gave one of my really good flier friend the chance to fly it and he ended up telling me that hes going to dream tonight with Fusions. best plane he has flown, he really make a good job wiht knifes and rolling circles right on the deck. He's amazed on how light and solid it feels on the air. YS is working really good after 1.5 gallons. Hovers at less than 1/2 power!!!!!
Awesome plane.
I crashed it for the first time, just a broken hinge on the elevator and a broken prop.
It's also crash resistant.
