Hi Lee

Congratulations on a very nice build job. The one thing I notice is a lack of rudder extension. I really would suggest extending the surface area of the rudder. It does not have enough area in stock configeration. Look at the other posts on this.

I don't see a problem with the esc.

Good luck on that first flight.

I finally got a chance to do my maiden flight today, well i don't know what to say.
it was perfect no trim needed, just a bit on the rudder, to say i aint modified the rudder it does turn better than i expected, not so good when gliding though.

I forgot to time how long it took for the battery to run out but it only seemed like 15 to 20 mins, at half throttle most of the time.....

Very nice plane, can't wait until next flight. (can't wait for better weather also)
