This is a video I took of the first flight of my ship being flown by a test pilot. As of today I have 5 hours flight time in this bird. It really is easy to fly and landings are a snap.

Thanks for the congrads and all. The prop is a Seninich 47 pitch and it seems about right.

I have about 7 hours on it with no issues. I worked hard to eliminate problems before flying and it seems to have paid off.

Looks good. Do you have a 49" or 51" pitch prop installed?
