Maiden Flight, Caught a Thermal

Maiden Flight, Caught a Thermal

Today I went out to maiden my new Parkzone Radian.  I got the PNP version and flew on my Tactic TTX650, with a TR624 RX installed in the Radian.  I bought this plane to do some thermal flying next spring/summer and was not expecting to catch this insane amount of lift today in the winter!  What a great surprise on a maiden flight!  The plane skyrocketed to hundreds of feet in the air, all without using any motor power at all.

 

Notice the wing at 0:41, as it bumps into the side of the thermal.  I circled around again and headed straight into it and rode it up into the skies!

 

Enjoy!
