I finished this plane over this past summer. It took a while to get it trimmed. It is a bit heavy, but the LA 46 does the job. In warm and humid conditions, I feed it more nitro.
The plane handles well, no bad habits. The nose construction on this one uses RC beam mounts on a ply firewall. Fuel tank access is from below.
I will get more flights on it as weather permits. I set it aside for a time to finish that last plane, the smaller one with the Brodak 40.
