I figured that since the rebuilt Strega is useless to me for contests I would get the one I built out and dust it off. My field at the park hasn't been mowed in a while so I went to the club field in Zachary. The engine started up like it was used only yesterday. It flew well without the proper handle and the engine running a bit too slow. I checked the balance on the rebuilt one and the kit plane was a bit nose heavy. I put a half ounce weight on the tail and will check that change next time out. I'll widen the ling spacing at the handle also. If I can get it flying as good as the rebuilt plane I'm pondering stripping it and refinishing like I did to the other one.
