So, did some more successful flights today, but the last one was less than successful. The jet performed pretty good, when it is balanced it is able to pick up speed pretty adequately. There were some trimming issues, but that came down to adjusting the servo horns and rods correctly. On the last take off something happened and the plane crashed and broke in half, I glued to back together but didn't manage to get it to fly again. At least I know it flies, I might use the electronics for a custom project if I am not able to make it fly again.
