I have the same problem of nose over with my Texan. Mine is nose heavy but thats what the CG calls for. Loved your flight with the cameras at all angles.
Like you I had to add a LOT of weight in the nose If I recall more than 120g !!! - it is nose heavy but as you say the CG calls for it.... like a lot of Dynam Aircraft it is a pain to build - but flys great..... Thanks for your comments...
Hi i Chris..Congratulations I hear you now have your A Certificate well done that man.....you build a lot, and you must now that dynam demand more from the modler when putting the together, but man is it worth the effort..they fly great, and look good....but this did need 120g of weight right up,front just behind the prop. Result being its stable in flight but wants to tip forward on the ground ...but well worth the nose over on landing shame...lol......
It does it all the time Brian, the take off is normally the problem but this one she was well behaved...its a Dynam so putting it together was a challenge, but she flys as if on rails..so nice...it has over 120g of weight in the nose to get the correct CG..and is without doubt nose heavy...but stable as a table with 6 legs...
@@FlankerTanker it's incredible there are very few kites about that have the correct CG.. loads of them you have to add weight. Yet to find one nose heavy... Even the zohd in safe it flys straight as an arrow turn it off it turns into a STUKA.. I'm going to try 3s today and fiddle about with the CG.. But you did do well on the texan... Its a shame you can't move them wheels further forward Have a good 1
Eflite Texan has fixed wire undercarriage, and for the price they should have given you retracts...the eflite T28 is the same....Noel, My arrows Hobby T28 , and the dynam Texan ...are just as good and the come with retracts.....yes thenDynam Texan was a little tricky to put together..but that's fun..lol....and flys as if on rails......

In flight video just getting better and better , your editing is really good .
thanks Danny - I am working out a formula that I hope will work as long as I have at least one on board camera - fingers crossed....
Great flight Martyn, lots of cameras, not the only person I see her nose over, must be the plane. 👍🏻

@@FlankerTanker Not have my A very yet, just declared safe. That’s a lot 120g, but it adds some fun getting the plane air worthy 👍🏻
Nice Texan 👌 and cool video!👍
Hi Jude - Thank you ....I must say that Mustang you had for $40.00 WOW what a bargain..
Martyn as long as the wings stay on its a good landing... I'd put the nose break down to the runway

I believe the Eflite with SAFE was a good Texan AT6 to fly when it was available. I see it come up on a model shop from time to time.
