The 2013 Great Hobbies & IMAC give away plane is finished
Financially as many of you know it was a rough year for me last year so it took me a while to gather all my required parts to get this plane flight worthy. Last fall after
 over it for a few weeks and letting it sink in, I finally stopped saying "Man that's a big plane" every time I went down stairs. Finally Saturday it made it's maiden flight thank you Don for doing this for me.  I miss calculated something because it was quite tail heavy and after adding 3oz to the nose and retesting it Sunday it is still a little tail heavy. After some dialing it in and tweaking some settings I got up the nerve to fly it and to this date THAT IS THE SMOOTHEST PLANE I HAVE EVER FLOWN!!!! Just ask Don Rick and Cliff I was doing the happy dance  all over the field, well maybe not all over the field but inside I was. I am looking forward to finishing up the tweaks and getting ready for a few IMAC events this summer, if I don't score better this year at NOIC there is definitely something wrong with this pilot (I was down near the bottom of eight). I am so exited!!!!!  Here's it is Saturday after it's maiden.

It came with a DLA 56 and I installed a MTW 75 canister for the exhaust.
