First flights.

I finished the new Cardinal and Profile Nobler finally. I didn't have spare engines for both so I used the only spare available, a .40LA. I flew the Cardial first and it's working out pretty good. I swapped the engine into the Nobler and it flew quite well also. I knew that swapping engines wasn't going to work so we went to the hobby shop and I bought a used .46LA for the Cardinal. I ran it on the bench for two ounces of fuel to loosen it up and set the needle. I installed it in the Cardinal and it's ready for more testing this morning. The hobby shop has a used ASP .52 just like the one I already have in Nomad 4 tht runs very well. I didn'thave enough money for two engines but I'll go back in a week or so.
