Tags: Maiden Flight of Top Flite Cessna 182 ARF with Saito 100 Golden Knight engine - Part1

Takeoff of Top Flite Cessna 182 in a fairly decent crosswind (check the flag on climbout) The Saito 100 performed beautifully swinging a 13 X 8 inch Master Airscrew prop. This plane was also modified with a Robart offset oleo strut. Much thanks to Darrel at Sierra Precision for providing the nose strut mounting bracket to the firewall. This plane flew well on quarter throttle and half flaps were plenty for the landing. Second video is of the landing. Looking forward to a twilight flight with the lighting system for the full monty Takeoff and maiden flight of Top Flite Cessna 182 ARF just a few clicks of aileron trim needed
