Pilot 'Tumeric'

Got myself a Pilot 'Tumeric' recently and did a maiden flight this morning at BBFAC. The assembly was rather difficult at certain point especially trying to get the servo and extension cables thru the wings. The wings are foam core and sheeted with balsa and it really a thin wing. Apart from that the rest of the assembly are fine. A very typical japanese design and the manual was simple. You just need to be prepared to do some minor modifications.

Flew it today and it was a beauty to see it up in the sky. It was a fast and agile aircaft but at the same time it's light enough to ride the thermals. Vincent was there to taken some nice shot of the aircraft.


Here we go...
