I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Don C 07-Jun-16 18:14 Ground crew did a good job. mlriley540 13-Jun-16 22:04 Test flights continue, it's been a challenge to get things right. I'll continue to experiment. I tried a powerful motor but that appeared to be too risky to manage and I went back to a medium strength. I've added more weight in the nose and may try an even weaker motor to avoid quickly climbing into a stall. mlriley540 18-Jun-16 22:03 Crashed hard 3 times this week with damage, but fully repaired each time. However today was hot and humid and I tried to fly but results were not good. I had reduced lift. I looked it up: "Humidity has a major affect on the way planes fly. This is due to the weight of the air when it is humid. When air is humid, it is actually lighter then dry air, contrary to common belief. That is because the water (H2O) weighs less then the N2 or O2 that it replaces". Hopefully try again tomorrow. I also lightened the nose just a tiny bit, so we'll see. It was almost flying great earlier in the week, really close. Please sign in to comment on this image.
