Guillows Fokker DR-1 Glide Tests
Initial glide tests look pretty good. I didn't make any adjustments, I just had to figure out how to launch it properly. Rubber power flights are next. Coming soon I hope!

A couple more flights of the Chipmunk Kit 903. I was going for forty seconds. I might have made it on the first flight but something killed the glide. My thrust adjustment technique is at the end. I don't recommend it, it's just how I did it on this build. I really like radials. LOL

    Keep in mind- these have a LOT of drag particularly with the prop installed even if freewheeling. Look for a steep, consistent glide but it won't float. It still appears to me to be a bit tail heavy.

    • @me262a1

    Nice build, the finished model looks beautiful! You used some good materials and chose a great design with the tissue! This plane is a great candidate for an RC conversion, which is what I would do with such a kit. I would recommend converting it to run with a small 3 or 4 channel receiver (preferably a 4 channel receiver) and to run with a small brushless motor, as this plane has the potential to fly very well, and you could have great enjoyment flying such an aircraft. Happy Flying! Please have an excellent and awesome day! ☀️✨✈️

      The wood Guillows uses can be very heavy to almost acceptable. My kit had decent wood but you must have gotten some heavy stuff. It's too bad but I guess that's how they keep the price down. Yours will still fly ok though. I've built some real heavy ones that did ok.

    MISA intimidates weak males. She sincerely smiles when she chooses not to appease you. Yes she is a woman of few words, yet ironically men who say MISA is not friendly because she is quiet, typically complain woman talk too much. She is a focused professional musician. Respect that. When she does speak or smile WE LOVE IT. Keep in mind English is NOT their language. English is hard to learn. Japanese is often called a language isolate, not much in common with other language families. With that said Miku Kabuto opposite, but 100% genuinely herself, smiles, speaking, seeming infinite energy,, also wonderful. Two different people with different personalities. I love all members of Band-Maid, they are individual. As a group, they play well together, from 10 years of working hard doing 1000's of live shows and many studio albums. I see good people, who have amazing talents, love what they do, and respect their fans with "we will do our best" attitude. Stop projecting your negative personality onto the MAIDS... Everyone LOVES the mystery of MISA... The Bear Foot Assassin. Most of all an amazing bass player. I LOVE THE MUSIC and all I expect. I get joy from their music, and support them by buying watching liking their videos* , buying show tickets, merch, and in future purchase their CD.“10th Anniversary Best” Vol 1 & 2 CDs . Don't project your negative personality onto them. * Don't watch "reaction videos" that copyright violate and play their videos while going "WOW". Why Band-Maid management does not take them down I don't know, but don't support these REACTION leach channels. You don't need anyone to tell you how to feel or enjoy music. Watch MORE Band-Maid Channel videos, like and comment.

      @me262a1 Thanks for fact check. You know more than I do about their history, no doubt. However, 500/10yrs = 50 shows per year AVERAGE. Accounting for the year or two of no touring due to pandemic that is over 60 shows a year average. I know US tours 2022 and 2023 (I was lucky to attended several shows) their schedule was busy, 2 or 3 shows a week, including traveling, sometimes no days off between shows. The point, I respect their hard work, and MISA "still waters run deep". Mysterious and that is cool. Thanks again for info.
