My replacement fuse was great too. My CG is about 185mm also, but have not determined the exact placement yet - have not had enough days in a row to determine this.

Unclear if you are talking about my info above but if so, I got my Angel less than a month ago. Another Angel was sold the same day as I was considering getting the Mytho S (which was being held for...

Olympus alternative?

After flying the Olympus for about 15 flights over weeks due to weather related conditions (I would have liked to fly it every day for a week to get use to it!) I decided to build another plane to...

I would not worry too much about the 3mm up - you can mix in a LITTLE down elevator with no (low) throttle and that will take care of the downline. It sounds like you have a good grasp on trimming...

Hey Stalker - I would not go much past 185mm on the CG. I'm sure you could but as you indicate, stability issues will arise - certainly when inverted and holding a horizontal line. I carry a bit of...

I have flown mine several (11) times, just short flights to look at trimming. Did did you see post #87 above? There is no verdict yet. This is a good plane to see the effects of a canalizer and get...

Just out for 3 flights before the snow arrives. The new servos worked great. The wings locked on, the aileron trim I had is gone. I did some snaps today - it was quite amazing. Airspeed, 1/2 throttle...

Ran the motor today, 16x10E, 50A, 1000W using Zippy 5000 25C 5S batteries - Colorado altitude. Seems decent. Hope to get out and fly this plane in the next days - weather permitting. Servo gear slop...

The plane is coming along fine. I'm very happy with the alignment of all surfaces. I have tested the motor - to the point I know it runs but have not taken any watt / current readings. The 16x10 sits...

Flying on CO with 'less air" I'm making plans to run a 16x10E prop. The ground clearance with the gear looked "OK" but I wanted to add a little more clearance, about .7" or so. To do this I decided...

New plane arrived today and I was a bit skeptical. However my fears were unwarranted as the model is close to perfect - and it's very close. All measurements are within 1/16" or better! Front of...
