My LHS E5SS Build

[Dean H]

There ya go....rub it in! Lol

I was all set to maiden the E5SS and as I walked out to the flight line with my buddy so he could check tracking and the rain started coming down! I could take it up in my back yard but I would rather do it at the fly field as there is much more room and the safety of fellow, experienced pilots.

Believe me, I'm chompin' at the bit to get this thing in the air!

Hate it when that happens... Sucks.. Ull get her up soon.. Good luck.

I have my fingers crossed for tomorrow. It's supposed to get into the 60's but a little windy.....maybe we won't get the wind!

Flying at VARCHA, Dean?
Unfortunately wind is part of the game this time of year.

[Dean H]

Yeah, I know. We're going to give it a shot tomorrow, though. Fingers crossed!

Thanks, Chris! It was a real joy to fly. Very stable and light in the air. It's also very quiet and smooth!
