first flight report

the model flies okay but had problems with ESC  8-) it was cutting off way early and i just checked the weight of the model its a whooping 367 grams vs my target weight of 290 grams no wounder the plane needs full power to climb but the good part is the ESC Fet are cold as ice  ;D

time to do some reprogramming of the ESC n some more testing,measuring then fly it again  :)
