Thanks! That was actually my 1st flight off water... Easier than I thought it would be. It is a very stable airplane so that sure helps.

Hey that is really nice, could you tell me please what kind of floats are those..???

The floats are included in the kit as well as a set of undercarriage if you want to fly from land.. I think I'll keep this model as a sea plane. I believe it is a Falcon kit which was manufactured in Italy.

Very nice. I was wondering if you needed some power on when you went to land. Looks like it would come in with no problem with a dead engine.

This plane glides forever. In fact, I had to make 2 go arounds to figure out how to slow it down. It's rated for a .46 but it has a SuperTigre .75 up front and it is a little nose heavy. I have since added weight to the tail and the elevator trim is now at zero.

Really nice

Very nice flying. R/C floatplanes are the best! Check out my channel, I have a scatchbuilt midwing design that uses a single float down the middle of the fuselage, with small outrigger floats on the wings. It looks very cool and flies very fast for a seaplane.

Great flight. Is this the plane you have for sale? How many times has it been flown since then?

Great plane and flying - thanks for sharing. How did you cut the engine at the end? Is the water rudder fix or will it lift under pressure?
