Carl Goldberg Gentle Lady .

This is a 2-meter bird (78") that was built extremely light for .049 TeeDee
launching (no hi-start). Engine is not reed valve. It is shaft induction and uses an
integrated tank mount. Runs way better than the reed valve engines we used to play
with. No landing gear at all. Takeoff weight with fuel, flight pack, and battery is 22
ounces. Hand launch only. Radio is Futaba 4 channel FM, flies with just 2 of them.
Trim settings are very straight-forward. Set elevator trim to neutral for powered
accent, and full down trim once the engine quits for a very gentle glide. Makes it a
lot of fun to fly, especially once she's up in the thermals. She'll stay up forever!
