Fawkes had her second flight after a bit more refinement on the new wing, and definitely better with the reinforced wing and reduced rates on the ailerons. Still flies differently than she did as the Sensei, but as I get used to her new traits, I think she'll be fine. My better half is planning on making the decals for her this week, so she should have her new plumage by her next flight.
The Stinger made her third flight this morning, with a much better landing than last week. Still not as pretty a landing as I'd like, but she touched down safely and rolled to a stop well before the end of the runway. The nose gear attachment came a bit loose, but not enough to cause any problem. I just need to reglue it before the next flight. I tried to set a camera on the tripod to record her take-off and landing, but the aim of the camera was off. She rolls through the frame before liftoff, and has already touched down when she enters the frame at the end. Still no actual video evidence of her flying, unless you want to count the sound of her passing just over the frame of the camera on the flight passes.
The Simple Scout flew again today, and this morning, I only gave her about half throttle to take off. She lifted off nicely at that level, letting me know once again that I have her a bit over-powered. For an inexpensive plane made of foamboard held together with hot glue, she sure is a sweet flyer. I think she could easily become my favorite go-to plane.
