She's done, and she flew!
winds were crazy last night, a constant breeze in the teens somewhere and gusting well in to the 20's. still needs dialing in of the plane, the handle, and the moron operating the handle, but she flies quite nicely! i was using a stunt handle with about 4" spacing on the first flight, and it was a bit....spooky... we'll say! Tightened the spacing significantly, and she was then quite well behaved considering the wind! nice design, Bill!
I know my flying position is all wrong in the pic, that was my first time flying a racing ship. Bob Heywood worked with me last night trying to explain some of the finer points. I was quite surprised how just changing my stance dropped the lap times!
i may need a Knotty Girl and a Rossi in the stable now......
