Very nice flight , overall. I was suprised that it took untl 3:00 min before the first throttle reduction. Also for a first flight, a stall series would have been nice, and slow flight , high alpha and a longer smoother final approach. Just extend your downwind 150-200 more feet.
Thanks, I was a little nervous since it was the maiden and I didn't want to crash it with on board video footage. I will see and test the limits of it's stall characteristics, roll rate. As for longer final approaches I will implement that on the next flights.
is this similar to the camera you were using? tinyurl(dot)com/yjc97a8
