Well, here's a quick report. I flew my "Wildcat" 2.4 profile at the "Tuneup" contest yesterday in Portland,OR. Having tested this plane numerous times i should have put new batteries into it. Result, 3 attempts, no score. While several noted how poorly set up my system was, and they may be right, I really think it was the batteries. Takeoff was OK but fairly slow, even for me. Then erratic throttle control until flame out. I had hoped to get a score to be the first ever to have entered an AMA sanction contest using 2.4, but I guess I will just have to settle for being the first to try. Fading hopes for modeling immortality.

PS After i get some rest I will begin changing the suggested setups with this plane. HAPPY NOTE............My wife was able to go with me and we had a great time together!
