Published on July 16, 2017
DEANO HAD HIS HANDS FULL WITH RICKS FW 190 MAIDEN TODAY, AS RICK HAD ASSURED HIM THE C OF G WAS CORRECT (WE ASKED HIM ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO SORT IT OUT CORRECTLY !) HE CARRIED ON WITH NEAR DISASTROUS RESULTS AS SHE WAS IN FACT TAIL HEAVY,
HE MANAGED TO PULL OFF A LEVEL FORCED LANDING WITH NO DAMAGE TO THE MODEL APART FROM A BROKEN PROP ! RICK GOT HER HOME AND FOUND THAT SHE NEEDED ANOTHER 1:1/2 LBS OF LEAD IN THE NOSE TO BALANCE ON THE MARK SET OUT IN THE MANUAL ! SHE IS POWERED BY A DLE 35RA (REAR EXHAUST) PETROL ENGINE
FILMED DOWN THE PATCH ON 18-1-2015,
