    Default First Flight

    To wet and muddy to work today so I finally had a chance to do the first flight.
    plane is balanced out very nice flew strait and true can barley notice any adverse yaw
    Stalls 38mph drops very smooth
    cruises between 80 and 90mph
    More info to come
    what a wonderful feeling
