Just starting out on Thorburn Lake NL The 1450 FulLotus floats have to be tested.

Thanks for the comments. Mounting the1450s took about a month and I hope they are rigged for good performance. I have not flown this plane on floats yet and we now have a foot of snow on the ground. If the weather warms up a bit this year I will test how she handles in the air.

Great! I have a set of aluminium floats but have been considering Full Lotus floats as they are very robust and offer exceptional flexibility, they can be used throughout the year in snow, ice and water! Even grass.
The installation seems perfect. Would love to hear about your experiences.
