My P-51 has Shot – S3E15

Michael and Jay talk about trying to fly the Comanchee.  It helps to bring the right battery connectors.  Flying the comanchee off grass is a bit of a new experience.  However the flight did not go as planned and wound up in a fatal crash for this airframe.  The guys discuss what might have caused this mishap.  Then off to the Hanger 9 P-51 to discuss the weight issue that Jay has tackled with buckshot. The aircraft was built for a glow but Jay has converted it to electric and needs more nose wight.  Lucky he has some buckshot laying around to use as weights.  Jay talks about the neat idea to make moulds with shot and epoxy.  Check out our new facebook page at @parkflyerstaff and post your comments and photos.

Let us know how we are doing!
