Thanks guys! I'm landing on grass and coming in very slow like y'all said to do. Also, no esc braking. I haven't really been flaring the nose though. I will try that and see. Thanks again!

UPDATE: To my Servo Covers design...
I made V3 of servo cover. I didn't like how thin the transition is between
the mount plate and arched tunnel. (May Crack if you don't get great bonding at this point)
So I added beveled filler at this point making it a much stronger joint.

It goes together pretty fast too.

+1. I'm at about 10mm on everything for throws w expo added. Cg about 76mm per manual. Anyone have throws and cg they like ?? Close to maiden here
Nice work on the scheme Aros, shes a looker.
Ordered an 8x8 apc but not here yet, balanced everything so if it depends on when things arrive on who does the pulling on the maiden. Setting stokedrc flyin addict

She is ready. A little chubby on the # so went with the 2700 tp, fits well, I have a few larger packs that fit and balance ok, will go light for the first flight. Glassed the wing tips, made servo covers and and a lower intake cover to limit the grass intake. I gave her 3 coats of the varithane exterior urethane , this helps keep the unpainted foam clean and really blends the decals in, gives everything a uniformed sheen. Have a up trim launch mode set, likely will add a little rt ale.rc flyin addict

Maiden complete today !
The launch was well, ugly, crazy torque roll, did video and it was nearly inverted 2 sec after it left my hand
Anyway cleaned my shorts and found no additional surprises, took quite a bit of down trim, inverted took a push down to hold level . She tracks really well and the speed is pretty good even with the stock prop. I made a landing mix /air-break both ale's up 2mm, really worked well to pick the nose up and slow her down a bit. 5 min and still came down with 3.9v/cell.
so for next flight
-moved cg back 3mm to 78
-added 2mm up to my air-break mix
-added 3mm rt ale trim to launch mix
Just needs the tuning, she looks like a winner to me so far.rc flyin addict

Torque roll? Sounds like you were at full throttle?
Our videos show an underhand toss at 45 degrees with about 50%-80% throttle for an easy launch without any torque roll.
I'm glad you got it down and can now continue fine tuning your setup!Live Q&A every Tuesday and Friday at 9pm EST on my Twitch Livestream
