Force Flight report
« on: April 30, 2013, 07:32:59 PM »
So we got a few days break in the rain and wind. Yesterday I was just too tired after work and gave the field another day to dry out.
I got in two short flights today with the new Force and I LIKE IT !!! I did not do much but a few wing overs and some easy inside loops climbs and dives. First flight was a little fast and the second flight was way too slow. When I came over the top on the first flight and pulled out of the wing over the plane just clicked into level flight and grooved great.
I need to add larger wheels for taking off on grass and add a little tip weight. I am going to get Randy Smith muffler to save some weight and start playing with props and get use to this puppy.

Congratulations Paul.  You sounded like it might have been a little bit fun.  I like the spinner too.

Thanks for the report.   Now you have something to work with.  Did I say I like the color scheme.

Thanks Guys.
I really want to get more handle time on the plane.

I can not take any credit for the layout on the paint. My wife found a RV 6 and provided input.   I tried to get close.
