    Thanks for sharing. We old pilots have a saying “Centerline Centerline” Meaning keeping the centerline of the runway always between our legs at all times. This requires doing a rudder dance. In this aircraft some left rudder during the initial takeoff roll, then another adjustment as the tail comes up and finally another adjustment as the aircraft is airborne.
    With most conventional aircraft torque, P factor and asymmetrical cork screw effect are all causing the aircraft to veer left. Looks like you are have those acting in reverse. Fly safely and your build is beautiful. Takes a lot of nerve on initial test flights.

      Hey, thank you so much for the comment and concern. This is an older video when I first started flying and yes the engine does rotate in the opposite direction. So it has a right turning tendency lol. Glad you enjoyed it and stay tuned for more!

    Congratulations! 👍
    May I give you an advice to improve your takeoff technique? Your video shows the plane veering strongly to the right side during takeoff run. It seems your aircraft is equipped with a counterclockwise turning engine. In contrast to the clockwise turning engine in a C172 a counterclockwise turning engine requires left rudder input during takeoff run and during climb.
    Enjoy your plane and fly safely!

    Estoy maravillado de las sensaciones de volar de verdad que siento como encima de una tabla voladora. Es único. Estructura simple cuadrada me recuerda el precioso fort trimotor, fokke VII..
    El video es precioso al volar como una mariposa justo encima del paisaje.
    Es un aparato diferente a todo y le agradezco tal enriquecimiento: punta alas doblada hacia abajo, techo plano, soporte ruedas canaliza viento a panza plana. Quizà esto permite tranquilo flotar
    a poca velocidad?👏
    Creo nunca volará mejor que hoy. Conserve bien la tabla que vuela el paisaje como una mariposa👼🏼👏👏👏

    Looks like you are having a ball. Some things for you to consider: 1. Residents of Airpark communities DO NOT LIKE YOU FLYING OVER THEIR HOUSES! 2. The feds will take your certificate for not following regulations and rightfully so. 3. Your future employers may hesitate to hire you when they have video evidence of your skirting the rules. They will check your social media. 4. You don’t inspire confidence in your passengers when you loosely follow the rules. 5. Take every precaution to live a long healthy life.
