Nieuport 17 update ... Successful maiden flight this morning at Las Cruces, NM !!! did 4 laps, looped and rolls good. Does a decent snap roll as well. Landed pretty good even with the winds. Winds were 10-15mph gusting to 20. All in all happy with the flight. :)

Salute,

Thanks all you your kind comments ... very much appreciated !!!  :)

The maiden flight went very well, but I was the only flyer at our club field. I did have a witness. A spectator drove up just as I was landing and said that my plane looked cool in the air.  :)

I've been trying to get some air pics and a vid, but the city just closed our field down due to the virus, so I'm grounded for the next few weeks until it reopens. Our club has an auxiliary field that I may try this weekend.
Salute,

My brother sent me a new plane for Christmas. :)

It's the Durafly Bf-109E, 1100mm wing span, using a 4 cell 2200 battery.



It's in a desert scheme.



I completed assembly, rigged flight controls and the motor cut out function. Verified retracts worked properly.



Completed taxi tests, no unusual tendencies noted.



She now completed with the decals applied. She is using the scheme of 2/JG27 from 1941, part of Rommel's Afrika Korps. Hope to maiden her this weekend if the weather holds.  :)

Salute,
