The pilot is lighter and is still a strong platform and it was built flwlessly out of the box! I replaces some hardware though thats my only complaint . Wheel axles being one and servo arms and links rod ends . For the money I would go PILOT!!! LOOK AT THE NEW 35% SBACH ON TBM'S WEB SITE.That a new plane that I'm getting

Well guys I fixed my plane . I repaired the bottom side and got it all back together and I should say it wasnt bad at all . Took me 10 hours and you can barely tell the repair .
This time I tuned it and it was still running a little fat on the bottom I took of and made one flight landed tuned it again and took off on the second flight and ran the fool out of it this time ! I could tell I got a couple more 100 RMS out of the engine I really opend her up this time !!! I made several low passes and would you know it died over the run way and I took her down and landed her in the tall grass . The landing gear ripped off again but it's a easy fix . I just have to relace the main block that it bolts on to . I made it where it will break away and have less damage . I came home tonight and saw I just ran out of gas . LOL I have already fixed it when I got home and will be flying today some more. i'll kep it on this airframe until the engine is broken in and i'll buy a new one soon. |
