succesful maiden of Sagitta!

The needed enhancements are done and it was possible to maiden Sagitta today via airplane towing.

The Sagitta flys very good and is quite fast, in spite of the thick airfoil.

I am already in love :-)!

Carrera Sagitta - new canopy arrived

Yesterday I received a real new canopy for my Sagitta ;-).
A guy from rc-network.de sold it to me.

Now I can start to do some small enhancements to have a bit more state-of-the-art model.

Elevator and ailerons have to much tolerance and I decided to remove the 30 year old servos (that were still in the plane) against new ones.

Do not want to loose this dream due to a servo outage!

I will take the Sagitta to the Swiss Alps in early August...

one dream of my youth came true: Sagitta Carrera

By chance I found a very nice, ~30 year old  Sagitta in very good conditions today.
I got it for real good price as it is from a club mate who gave it to an other guy 130km away to sell it for him.
That's real luck!

The only thing, I need a new canopy. A common issue for this old Carrera plans...
