Andrew Smith 5 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Did the maiden flight today quite aprehensive as i have only flown foamies before, the light wasnt brillant so it would be only a short one and was also a tad breezy.But all went well it took off great on grass with the big wheels and steadily climbed need to carry a bit more speed to turn to what im use to but was good had plenty power, wanted to see how it landed I set some down flaps on and did a dummy run got a bit too slow and started to rock side to side,came round for another and landed it very gently, so overall im chuffed with it.
