It looks like you are way underpowered... I had the same issue with my SR-71. What motor/prop setup were you using? I crashed my bird several times before I got it right, on these longer planes CG can be a bit tricky. Can't wait to see you get it in the air!!
Yup...it was! I got a new motor, and she's ready for action....just waitin on the weather! After like 20 crashes Bob got the CG all figured out, and saved me a ton of grief! (you can tell my CG is cool on the 2nd attempt).....I have to hold it back from going vertical with the new motor, now....come on nice day!!
Bigger motor and a shim or two where the screws go into the mount and yes i did watch Dave's Video with the baby B1-Bomber lol.thumbs up man and don't give up as you will get there mate.
Thanks! ...hey, no one said anything about giving up! lol I think Bob crashed his about 20 times before he got it to fly...at least I can learn from his mistakes! :-)
Yes...much bigger motor needed no doubt! Thanks for the comment...
well dont give up on her yet
