Clowniac Again

The Clowniac is no longer just a display model! Today the local weather was pretty good for flying. So three of us showed up at the field. And the Clowniac flies! The Tiger GP 15 I picked up used on eBay runs absolutely great. Plenty of power. There were some pretty wicked winds out at our field today. But the Clowniac penetrates well. And I managed to get in five nice long flights with the Clowniac today. She has now experienced inside loops, outside loops, inverted flight, lazy eights, and a wingover. And when she lands, she stays upright on the landing gear. Even if the landing is a little fast and sloppy. Imagine that! The wind conditions were pretty brutal today, or I would have tried a few more maneuvers. But I am confident now that the Clowniac will do whatever I want her to do.
