New 60 Size Cap!!! Man I like it.
Well Ive gotten through the first week of flying my new bird and all I can say is WOW!
With the nice Saito 91 on it it flies like a raped ape.
yesterday I did my first experimentation with the flaperons and I was amazed at how slowly the plane landed. One landing had me scared as I was runing out of runway and was still 2 feet off the ground... I was at high idle and decided to punch it. GROOOOWL the Saito went and I was amazed as the plane pulled near verticle and just kept going!!
The low speed handling is nice with the flaperons down and I am enjoying meself thoroughly.
Soon I will attempt some more meneuvers. Right now its got a MA 14x6 4stroke prop on it. I dont have a tach so Im not sure of the rpms.
Thanks to all those that helped me.

I had one with the same engine.What a great flying plane. Unfortunately at that time the plane could fly better than me(insert story about bad crash that wasn't my fault here). Anyway, enjoy the plane.One thing to look out for, I found the landing gear mounting block to be mounted very weakly(pulled right off on what were uneventful landings).

Hey Jon,
good to hear from you.hope you're still flying. I sold the Kaos to a pattern guy who said he would kill to have one. I told him money would be ok. I love the G-Trick.
