RC T28 Trojans Formation: Flight Sixty Two

The ‘T28 Trojan’ has a 9 x 7.5 propeller, runs on a 2200mAh 4S LiPo, and features tricycle retract landing gear, full flaps, a working rudder and a steerable nose wheel. Flight Review: Lined up on the tarmac facing south, I applied the throttle, it was a little bit of a difficult take-off. I did my best to keep the lead Trojan in frame as we got airborne, then after a couple of minutes I moved straight into the circuit, turning quickly and trying to fly behind the chase aircraft. This was the first time I'd say I was relatively close for multiple passes, and we had some really good moments. One was a double loop where I pulled up behind the other aircraft, while another was a big dive where I came down on top of the other Trojan. There was also a close call where the Trojan turned with its wings tilted directly in front of me and flew past very close. Fortunately, there was no impact or collision. The landing was on a wet runway and was a little bit fast, but I managed to bring the aircraft to a complete stop in the time available, which is something that's really difficult to do. It's something I'm always working on improving.
