I came last in the Nordic class, which was no surprise since I have not practiced. But valuable lessons were learned, competing is the one thing that will teach you the most about what to improve about your flying and the model you use.
I had a dead-stick on one round and lost a wheel in another. The O.S 1.60 engine needs some more oomph, we had a day of windy conditions and I did not have enough power. I’m gonna try an 18x10PN prop, redo the tank and fuel connections to ensure stable flow and tune it max using a tachometer. And maybe – just maybe – add a Perry pump.
