Well she flew! Then crashed, then flew again! Then crashed again, then I was run out of props lol. But it definitely flew! Made a rooky mistake launching into the sun and my eyes burned so I put it down, rather hard broke first prop. Next time I got a good lap in round the field but miss judged where I was in respect of the trees, I flew it overhead and as I turned round to follow it I saw the tree and was too late to avoid it, crash! It was a big tree so I’m glad it let the plane go, the second prop broke as it hit the floor.
It was a bit of a handful if I'm honest, it’s needs better trimming, I’ll redo it all before net flight. I’ve ordered some more props so try again next weekend. It did feel quite heavy too, I'm not so sure film covering it was the best move.
It flew totally differently to the little park flyer I've been running, or maybe I was just nervous lol
Anyway roll on the postman with extra props and lets hope for some decent weather at the weekend!
Maiden flight, and crash lol (My 7yo's camera skills are not so good)
