Well I maidened the Dynamic S this evening, despite balancing the plane on the indicated marks she was waaaay tail heavy which resulted in a most undignified landing into a corn field . No major damage, just a couple of minor dinks in the leading edge of the main wing (now reinforced with glass fiber packing tape). On a 3s 30C she's not as fast as I'd initially expected but I have to say it's really nice to cruise around at 0 power then hit the throttle for a fast vertical climb out. I may change the motor for a lower KV that I have lying around and increase the prop size and pitch with an Aeronaut carbon folder. Overall though very satisfying!

Growing old is inevitable but growing UP is optional!
