“This is my 3rd warbird to own and my first 1600mm. Before this, the biggest warbird I had flown was a 1200mm and let me say, I immediately noticed a big difference when it took to the air. I’d say I’m an intermediate pilot and this bird was a handful for me on the maiden. I balanced it at the recommended CG and I only needed a little nose up trim. It flew nicely at first but I noticed it didn’t really get through the turns very well (maybe I wasn’t giving it enough power?) and I wasn’t doing any knife edge turns or anything crazy, just standard turns. Before the flight I wasn’t sure what to expect, so to be safe, I put the AR636 receiver with SAFE select on it in the plane. I flipped the SAFE switch on when I came in for landing to help with stability and I came in with too much speed. At the last moment the wing dipped low and the plane yawed slightly to the left, causing the gear to contact the ground at an angle. The weight of the plane and it now coming down yawed to the left instantly crushed BOTH of the gear (along with a few gear doors). Miraculously, NONE of the foam was damaged or even scratched. 2 new gear assembly’s and all new gear doors and it’ll be back up in the air in no time! Overall, great looking plane, however, NEW PILOTS BEWARE. Unlike some other RC planes, (trainers, high wings, etc.) this plane will only fly as good AS YOU ARE. Some planes will fly themselves, this one WILL NOT. If it’s properly trimmed it’ll fly straight with no problem, but the second you try and turn, you better have rudder inputs and elevator input as well or else it’s going to start descending. Great warbird nonetheless and I love it!!”

“What a beautiful commemorative airplane! So pretty that I was afraid to fly it, but Charlie gave it a beautiful “ maiden “ flight yesterday! Awesome and perfect. I forgot to tell him that I had installed the Admiral Stability plus receiver that surprised him! Next time he will get mode C, but for my turn I feel less weak knees in mode A. Charlie also upgraded the cockpit with his 3D printer and the plane flies with an open canopy!”
