Thanks guys
But sorry the pants are not for sale. no matter how sleek you say it is. Anyway this would be my second foray into balsa planes. The first one died prematurely. This bird is full of surprises for me. It weighs like a turkey, though much lighter than me, but it flies or rather float very well. Unfortunately, due to the rain and hence short flights, I am still not able to trim it properly. And I was just flying with 2 cells with a BL 1200kv motor on a 1047 APC prop and drawing ard 8 - 10 amps cruising at 1/3throttle and abt 18amp when I really push it. It ROGs for about 6 metres before it begins to rotate for a takeoff at half throttle. I am still trying to get the hang of it.Go back in one piece to fly another day.
Having fun yet?

18 amp? Sounds like you can go a bit further with 10x7 or 8 prop for a bit more speed.Stop looking for a gyro in my plane, they are all in the head.
