Great Pics.. I like the one with the sun in the background.
So she flies well? Any bad habits?
I picked up a new Carb for the G-38 that's in mine. I had an idle problem and that should cure it. All ready once the snow melts. (we're due for a couple more inches of the white stuff tonight)

Hi Dan,
She flies very well, as long as you are active on the controls,
means during normal turn she needs some extra power and little bit help with the elevator and rudder.
But, I think that´s normal for a biplane. It´s my first one.
And no bad habits at all, very stable in flight.
The snow we had melted days ago and today it was perfect for the maiden. No wind, no clouds, 18°C.....perfect!

Anybody still outthere that has one of these. I never did maiden mine. Lost interest due to other planes, but now I'm lookin at this thing again and redoing all the likages , servo placement and fuel tanks. I'm installing 2 tanks , 1 for smoke system.
Propwashed .. You still around?

I still have my plane in the box. I can't decide how I want to power it. The airframe was heavier than I expected (fiberglass).

I have a Zenoah G38 in mine. I think any of the 40cc gassers would be fine in it. If wanting a 2s , a os 1.60 is perfect as well as a Saito 180. Note that this plane is quite tail heavy so a fair amount of ballast is needed up front when using a light engine.
A Moki 2.10 would make it fly like a foamy. check out this thread. I put a link of a kid flying it with an overpowered engine.. It's pretty awesome.
Good luck on the build.. It's one pretty plane.
