Default Stupid me

Well I went out today to fly my 260. It was the first flight since what happen at the Youth Masters. Well I took off and the plane was ballooning sooooooo badley that I could barley control it. I got it on the ground safley but it was hard!!!! I look and look at the stabs and elevator. What was when I barley give it up it was center a little up and when I gave it down it would center going down. Come to find out I hook the servos up the wrong way when I put the plane together today!!!!! I have a matchbox for the elevators and everything is lable but dummy me didnt make sure when I hook it up it was right. After I fixed that the plane flew GREAT!!!!

By the way we block up the front piece of the plane so heat wouldnt go through the airframe from the engine. Just cool air from flying. We have the heat going elsewhere now and the engine isnt running as hot now and the inside isnt as hot.

Its not a very easy trick, but it looks professional and works! Are your cylinders pink now from the Nall?
