Marcus deserves congratulations
he´s ALWAYS looking to improve and learn more, and from now on his covering jobs will be even better!
the plane is well buld, dead straight, light and with care, so much that a translucent covering was choosen and can show his work!
keep up with the good work bad ass!

So guys, what you think?

Marcus

Crist Rigotti · « **Reply #60 on:** December 20, 2015, 06:02:30 PM »

Marcus,
It needs some blue on the bottom. I really like a red, white, and blue airplane. Looks very nice.

Bob Hudak · « **Reply #61 on:** December 20, 2015, 07:55:33 PM »

I've been watching this build for some time. Now that it has some color it looks very sleek! I bet it will fly as good or better than it looks. Good job Marcus.

Well, vacation is over, time to get back to business...
Going to My friend Rogerio Fiorotti's place to get the eletric stuff installed and ready to go... Hope he is patiente with me, since I kind of have a certain difficulty with eletric systems....LOL...
He'll show me how to do the things and if the wind gives us a break, it will maiden on sunday...
Can't wait to see this ship in the air....
Wish me luck!

Marcus

john e. holliday · « **Reply #75 on:** January 21, 2016, 08:34:00 PM »

That looks so nice and now your going hang all that electron stuff on it. Just kidding, hope she flies as well as she looks.

MarcusCordeiro · « **Reply #76 on:** January 23, 2016, 10:15:58 AM »

Thanks Rogério, for everything!!
Custom made timer was cool!!!

Marcus

Crist Rigotti · « **Reply #77 on:** January 23, 2016, 11:13:34 AM »

Getting close!

MarcusCordeiro · « **Reply #78 on:** April 09, 2016, 07:22:05 PM »

It maidened last sunday.
Needs a little trimming, but flew straight and smooth.
The timer worked great and I'd like tothank my buddy Rogerio Fiorotti for coming to assist me even with a bad cold...
My son had a go... And now he tells me he wants to have more goes...
Oh my...LOL

Marcus

MarcusCordeiro · « **Reply #79 on:** May 24, 2016, 02:53:04 PM »

I seem to have a hunting issue here....
Have done all I know and it still hunts...

Help guys....

It flies well and is very stable, even in windy conditions, but this hunting is really bothering me...

move the CG forward,, I would suspect to be consistant with other electric conversions somewhere 3/4" to an inch forward

and make dang sure all your controls are super super free

Maybe change the direction of the prop.

Fred Underwood · « **Reply #82 on:** May 24, 2016, 09:21:57 PM »

Control drag is the usual culprit. Rub against a rib or foam, rub from angled lead out guides and anything else that causes a bind.

A lot here

MarcusCordeiro · « **Reply #83 on:** February 20, 2017, 05:20:37 PM »

Well, I have News...
been flying the ship a lot and though there's still very little hunting, what solved the problem was a wider handle...
I noticed that I was struggling with the corners and here was no corner at all..... so i changed the handle to a hardpoint one and voilá... I got a new ship.
Also, Fiorotti made me a custom timer to fit the profile fuselage and with the Jettibox conector life has become very easy...
I couldn't be happier..... A few pics of recente action...

Looks like a right goodie.
I also find that those hard point handles help my flying tremendously. Enjoy flying Marcus

Marcus, glad to hear you are getting time on the plane. Guess the son is not going to take it from you.
