I wind Kevlar thread around the nose to stop splitting. I suspect tissue is not enough. Difficult to see if the prop was freewheeling. The supplied prop may be a bit heavy. Gizmo geezer units are what I use in P30. Great video. You need a dt. P30s have a strong desire to fly away. Subscribed for more videos.👍
Thanks Jim. Already have DT installed (see my reply on an earlier video). Unfortunately Covid and rotten weather cut short my outdoor activity, but looking forward to getting back out when possible. Lost my local field as the Council has banned all model flying on their public land... I had a Banshee woman come screaming out at me that I could kill children! I suspect that she just didn't want anyone spoiling the view from her lounge window. I suggested a football might do more damage and that she could look up the word "community"!
@@me262a1 Thanks for the comment. I have been able to return to indoor freeflight flying since Covid lockdown ended. I co-run an indoor group of about 30 fliers who fly all types of models from Peanut Scale to F1D ultralight duration models.I fly mainly F1D, F1M, Penny Plane, Osprey and Bostonian. I'm building a 1.5m electric RC glider for Spring and I have my P30, Senator and Competitor to fly on thse magic calm days, providing I can find a new field....
Very nice and very usefull information. I have a similar type of model, built from free plans in Aeromodeller, but not covered as yet. I may be tempted to finish it and at least trim it in my local playing field, having seen how you go about this.👍👍👍
The problem seems to be the C of G being too far forwards: I.e.: the model is nose heavy, as can be seen from the initial nose- down glide. The heavy nose is why the tail incidence has to be over-raised, to compensate for the nose heaviness. It is this excessive incidence which then causes the stall. Try shifting the C of G a bit back (only a bit), and re-trim. See then if it solves the stall problem. Cheers!
Hi, Mike Woodhouse in the UK sells this kit and he knows the manufacturer. If you mail him, he is a very helpful guy mike@freeflightsupplies.co.uk. You might like his website www.freeflightsupplies.co.uk/. Hope this helps.
Excellent trim session with lots to learn from. Thank you.
BEAUTIFUL FLYER~!

@@tomtflyer9127 It's too bad about losing the field you were trimming in. That will be a nice flyer. Now to watch your other videos.

Beautiful plane and beautiful flyer
Thank you, the video is very useful for me and the boys and girls whom I teach to build airplanes. I have 30 children.

After fine tuning should fly very well.
What is the material of the fuselage tube? Balsa?
Hi. Yes the tube is balsa. It keeps the model nice and light.
cheers
