    Lon, I am so impressed with how well balanced your blades are. That was one of the smoothest onboard videos I think I've ever seen.

    Could you you do a short video on how you balanced your spinner and your 3-bladed props?

    Seagull Skyraider. I had not flew this plane since last summer. I think this was the 4th time I have ever flew it. I am not so sure about this plane. It seems to fly good and it doesnt. I had some hardware problems with it from the original arf. I changed out aileron rods. I am overpowering it with a saito 125 four stroke, but I am also negating some of it with a 4 blade scale 14x8 biela prop. I doubt I leave that prop on the model. I will probably put a 15x? two blade on it. I really just stuck that four blade on their for static display. I said heck with it and did not feel like changing it. So I flew it. Its to much for that engine probably but it did pull it around ok. It was on the windy side that day, but damn the plane just never felt like it was tracking comfortably. I felt like I was hands on flying it the whole time. Anyway enjoy the short video.

    Yes, it is the clevis. The Clevises on FMS planes suck. I need to change it I just have not got around to it. All my Mustangs have done that. Just part of getting the new out of it I guess.

    Thanks. I guess I tried to post a couple of times but it wouldn't let me. Eventually they must have actually gone through! Sorry about that.

    Here's a short video showing my club's flying field at Valley Forge National Park. It was an incredible night for flying last night, about 80 degrees, not much wind at all, and the sun setting behind the hills.

    This is my go-to spot when I want to fly at lunch or after work on the way home. Beautiful Chester County, PA. My club is located about 12 miles away but I don't have any videos from there yet. This was my very first flight with a cam on board.
    That is a great place to fly!!
