At countryside, first time assembled together. My father just sitting and saying :"You are crazy! What a huge airplane" On the other hand he is proud, he has such crazy son. On third & fourth photo - my hangar for time being. Father´s factory.

Congrats, beautiful. Do you find the rudder to be extremely sensitive? I had to crank the expo way up on my rudder, or point rolls would be all over the place. They do fly like a big trainer but will take a beating.

Thanks!

Before first flight I set up expo for about 70% too all surfaces at 3D rate (around 50 degrees of deflection) and 30% of expo at normal rates (25 - 30 degrees). It is flying so smooth at this set up. Maybe I will lower down this settings ...
