After my first mediocre build of the F-86 I decided to build another one and modify the ailerons to more reflect the actual aircraft. I also added landing gear with a steerable nose wheel. The thrust test went great and planning to maiden tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Plane Build: F-86 Sabre designed by @Zephyr1
Motor Unit: 50mm EDF w/40c ESC
Battery: Venom 4s 2200mah

I finally got her off the ground and in level flight. It took a few attempts but I made it. The CG on this plane is very touchy. I've included the video footage of progression. It took 3 attempt's but well worth it to see her fly. Hope you enjoy.
