The Rotmilan is flown!

well an afternoon off work mixed with doctor appointments (still no cure for gingers I,m afraid) I managed to maiden the Rotmilan. Wind speed 27knots at Roundway hill! All caught on video (to follow) thanks to The Drewett.
Bit mud on wingtip not dent!

Impressions...
Trim perfect, c of g to far back slightly, to much elevator authority and disastrous mixing of elevator to spoilers!  I have to sat that this ship is very very quick, quicker than a Italian crew ship captain leaving his ship!

Not the best vid for flying, however you get the idea.....

Rob

Quote of the day

I say "were bloody Lucky you know with these gliders and all"
Martin says "to top it off... You know me"

Westbury tomorrow afternoon if anyone is interested.... Watch you don't crash into martins ego!
