First Flight

Well Known Member
I had my first flight of my F1 with the tapered EVO wing on friday. Since then I have put about 6 hours on the plane. This wing has made quite a difference to the aircraft. I have a lot of hours in different rockets and although they do a lot of things very well they do land a bit on the hot side. This EVO wing takes me back to my RV4 days and I am loving it. I have had nine landings so far and all of them have had a shorter landing roll than my best standard wing rocket landings. It is too early to day anything about top speeds but based on prototype that I flew the EVo will be 5 to 10 knots faster as well.

Pictures, we want pictures!

Tom,

Congrats on your first flight!

Please post numbers (and pictures) when you get them. They will make me cry but I'll get over it.
