Any updates on your lovely Baby Joe ??

Spanner:
Hi John,
I just completed the first proper flight with the Baby on Mt Leinster last weekend, it flew really nicely with just a tad of up trim required.
I had attempted to fly it back in April but only succeeded in an short flight out and back to land as the model failed to climb. The lift on that particular slope may have been a bit marginal or it may have been me not letting the model pick up enough speed. I decided that it would be best to wait for more favourable conditions before attempting a second flight. I also rechecked the decalage and increased the angle by about 1/2 degree.
There are some pics on the 2018 events page thanks to Fred.
Looking forward to many more enjoyable flights with her.

Joe
