      • Day 518: Flew Witchcraft this morning and got ten minutes on two Admiral 4S 4000 mah batteries with 3.87v left. Rates are by the manual except the ailerons which I took down to 60% with 30% expo. Flaps per the book but slowed down to two seconds. You will be amazed how well this planes flys.

              • Day 520: Flew the F-105 in 20mph wind today, what a fun little jet! I got 5 flights on it using Admiral 3s 1800mAh batteries and got 4 minutes with 3.7 - 3.8 left. I was able to hover it in the wind, crazy fun :Cool:

                • TI, how is the 64mm F-105 on power? I only have one 64mm EDF (Freewing MiG-15), and I haven't been impressed with it.

                  • Pretty fast and it will also slow down nicely...I'm going to put a FPV system in it and pretend I'm Chuck Yeager trying to break the sound barrier.

                          • Maidened my Durafly 1.1m Spitfire Vb. I'd detailed it as Don Blakeslee's 133 Eagle Squadron Spit. The Maiden was very easy and I was very happy with it's handing. The takeoff, trimming, flight, and landing was very easy, and the WOT speed was nice. She's a keeper and will probably become my favorite 1.1m warbird, in close competition with the 11 Hobby P-51D.

                              and put three more flights on Petie....I think the 580 motor is in the future.

                                  • Some P-51 formation from Tuesday. Petie is grounded due to a broken retract. Don't know how that happened. I'm bolting on a 580 motor as well.

                                      It has been well established that the FMS 1400 sized retract side plates are an issue.
                                      About 2 years ago I discovered SmallPartsCNC and brought them to the forefront of the RC community with this fix for FMS etracts.

                                      Well worth the $40 for reliability ;)

                                        • Had a great day out on a relatively calm weather day in between all the rain and high winds. Despite the gusts of up to 25mph I did the maiden of the FMS 80mm hawk, what a great jet that was got two flights on her and enjoyed it immensely. Next up was the Freewing F-86, again a great flying go to jet. Finally Flew the HSD F-16 as well. Quite the jet day for me. :f16
