Maiden Today, Flys Great.
Was very Happy with the Flying,
Just remember always make sure the wings are flapping or you will fall out of the sky which i tried up high, but full power back on and it rights itself and flys again after about a couple of seconds.
Also make sure you have full rates to ailerons as you need them to turn easier, i even did a loop which the crowd enjoyed.
Fly slow and it will decend and cut power when about a foot off the ground and it looks impressive and no damage on grass at all.
Important caution
After several flights and 3 min into flying i was lucky that i was about 1 meter from the ground the whole thing shut down and belly landed in the high grass.
Speed Controller Failed, Replaced with a 35 amp speed controller and all flying again, lucky i was only so hi off the ground could have been foam pieces if i was up high.
Images attached of current Draw of bird at Full Throttle and burnt out Speed Controller.
Suggest owners Change Speed Controller as its a brick when not Flapping happily in the air
I Think Cris Mc Got Some Video Footage
