The speed factor may be because of our altitude, 5000 feet. She's a great pattern plane and will roll and perform sloppy loops with the stock system. The new motors give her a bunch more power and she does what I would expect her to do. At Muncie she was amazing. I thought you were just going for a drive there Ben!LOL
Those T/O flaps make a big difference!

My bad!LOL I will tell you, it's so worth it my friend!:Cool: and yes wind gusts were up to 20mph that day, averaging about 15mph
In all seriousness, am I too new to be trying to fly it?
I fly my E-Flite F4F Wildcat 1.0m and P47D Razorback 1.2m very good unless there is an electronics failure or mechanical failure.

I can tell this forum is going to be painful.

There are some planes that just fly incredibly, straight out of the box, the two in the top of my list are the Tigercat, my first tike gear and twin engine airplane, and the Bearcat. Both Flightline RC and both rock!! My fleet will never be without these two in the Hangar!!

Life finally slowed down enough for me to get in the maiden and 3 more consecutive flights on the Tigercat today! What an awesome plane! I have to give a shout out to OV10 and Tirediron for the info on the landing gear upgrade (OV10 for the nose gear set up, works perfect! and George for the tip on the FL Spitfire mains, Awesome!:Cool: I would also like to thank Rifelman and OV10 for the instruction and pictures for the parallel harness.:Cool: It gives me real peace of mind knowing each motor isn't relying on a single battery.:Whew: Thank you Gentleman for all the help and Thank You Motion RC for Quality products and Awesome Customer Service! The people on the Squawk are the greatest! You guys ROCK! Saving my pennies for the new releases. Hoping for the OV10 Bronco!) Again Thank You All, Dave
