Thanx Steve. Yep, I was waiting for Buly to get his first flight in before I
did mine - you know "age before beauty" (or was that "pearls before swine")!
How's the 40 hours and your house (since I know they are connected!)? Did
you get your plane moved?
I did my second flight today - 1.3 hours with lots of turns from gradual 10
degree to 60 degrees. I also ran the engine hard - full throttle - for about
30 minutes in mostly straight and level flight - but with the gear down
still. I was getting 140kts at 5300RPM - but that's all I could get. The oil
temps were also hitting 200 degrees - so I backed off and let things cool
down to 180. The next flight I'm slated to put the gear up and we'll try it
again and see what kind of RPM/speed I get. I'm not looking to test the
upper end of the speed yet - just want to know I can get to 150kts for now.
Thanx,

Buly and Joe,
Congratulations on your successful first flights. I just got a chance to
check my email, and was surprised to see not one, but two first flights of
more rotary canards.
Looks like the canards are starting to take over !
