Weather finally cooperated and the winds got down to around 10mph right before sunset. It's very freeing to go into my backyard, toss the plane into the air thinking, "well, if it crashes, it was only a few hours of work and $10 of foamboard." - but it did not crash, but actually flew really well. Really didn't even need much trimming. Fast rolls, great elevator, but the rudder didn't have as much authority as I wanted. At the same time, it was a bit nose heavy since I wanted to err on the side of safety first. It got dark before I could get another flight in, but tomorrow I shall try with the CG a bit further back and maybe the rudder on the innermost hole. Oh, I did add one more mod since I posted the photos. In order to get the CG, I needed to move my servos up under the wing. Maybe I shouldn't have used MG servos, but they're pretty much my default for everything nowadays.
I really missed having this design of a plane in my hangar.
