Maiden flight of the old repaired Victor Meldew Fun Fly. I had forgotten about the landing as I was concerned about the need for more nose weight and of course I left my lead weights at home.Got seven flights in but finished up with cramp in my hands in the evening due to not using a transmitter strap or tray and driving 104 miles.
Plenty of help where required from the other club members.
A plane saved S B , but they all need plenty of adjustment and BW was most helpful. The engine started first spin with the new fuel, but as you noticed the C/G was too far back and I have no reference as to where it should be as I have never identified the plane or had a plan for it. So trial and error should hopefully put it right.
The engine on my Cougar had a problem so a replacement is necessary from my collection of Enya motors.
Flown In nicely
