Lovely little plane. Looks like it was a nice day, too. I'm excited for the 2021 flying season. Thanks for posting!

[@crashrr2993]

You make the world’s hardest hobby look ridiculously easy! Great job.

[@sandfac3427]

Thank you. Appreciate your taking the time to watch as always

[@rubberfly]

Great trim session, thanks for sharing. The Bellanca looks very light. I marvel at your one-handed starting technique. And now I know what 'bunching up' means ... ;-)

[@dansmith7617]

So nice to see you making it fly and then the process of really making it sail! Lovely...-Dan

[@engleharddinglefester4285]

That flew pretty good esp that last flight. Props! lol

[@aidanwelly]

Beautiful Flight 👍👍😍😍

[@stevenhugh1785]

Great video , I look forward to seeing more like this.

[@juebest]

Very nice 👍

[@Colin399]

Nice bit of trimming

[@jasonmcguire5206]

Great flights, Oliver! It's nice to see how well she can hold a right hand turn throughout the flight. Did you use any rudder offset, or is it just right thrust causing that?

[@sandfac3427]

Thanks Jason! Rudder is straight, just a couple degrees right thrust. Generous dihedral (per plan) and 1/16” washout each tip.

Is that a Comet kit or another brand? I have the Comet kit. Flies well with trim.

[@sandfac3427]

It’s from the Mike Nassise plan, a little smaller than the Comet. Send me an email at [e-mail] if you’d like a copy

[@arthurbaretta2755]

Could u do a build video of a plane maybe in post plans or were to buy the kit so we could build along with u

[@sandfac3427]

I am planning on doing some build videos soon! Let me know if there’s any steps or particular information you’d like to see.

[@arthurbaretta2755]

@@sandfac3427 just general build

[@AugustusHerring]

Idyllic. A pinch of downthrust. A dash of washout. Pray tell show the prop block dimensions.

[@SM-pi8vd]

What is the wingspan?

[@sandfac3427]

16 inches, maximum wingspan for dime scale
