maiden flight

[wayne276]

Hi guys just maidened my sukhoi today and wasn't really impressed seemed very hard to control and impossible to get to fly straight. I only had one battery so didnt get a lot of time to experiment and trim out. it had a tendancy to keep dropping the nose, any tips ?

Wayne......STOP!

If you fly stock...which I did, youwill be disapointed!
Firstly the prop is not right, it's under powered....get the P51 micro one and you have extra power....secondly change the battery for the large one (again extra power and extended flying time)

By changing the battery you will give the plane level flight as it ballances the plane...the small one needs to be moved to far back!

I've been using the larger batterys and prop and it is a totally differant plane!

honest!

Hi stimmy sorry i havent been on for a while laptop broke down and was pre occupied as i was running my own pub for a while but i'm back now and ive got an awesome project for this summer, got a brand new hangar 9 p47 thunderbolt that i am gonna build with a eflite power 60 motor. thanks for the advice ralph thought it may have been a cofg issue as i had the stock battery as far back as possible and it still seemed nose heavy so i will take your advice as i wanted more bat's anyway, cheers
