I only flew the Spit one time Saturday. The plane/engine didn't have the correct thrust line from the factory and when I took off the plane went to the left sharply. I was able to take off but I went between two telephone poles and under the wires. After it was up it flew fine. The landing was easy.

Went out to the field with the new and improved engine thrust line (thanks to the advise of Ming (an expert flyer) and a couple of washers) and the plane flew great and took off straight down the runway. This plane likes to fly fast and I like to fly it fast. The video is from today's second flight.
