Desafio 2000 S - Quest-2

[Grow Pattern]

I have almost finished building the new QUEST-2. To set up the servos I 
copied the program in my 10X from my first Quest. I went to code 64 to clean 
out any rudder to ail-elev mixes and found them all to be zero. If the new 
Quest (QUEST-2) flies anything like my other two, then I'll recommend it as 
a back-up.

I visited George Asteris last week. He is in good shape these days and is 
building and flying up a storm. He has built ten (10) Quests in the last 
year. [ Not all for him]. I think he likes them, yuh think?

The new one has a shorter wing and few constructional changes like a more 
regular firewall.

If the need for a back up was to have a "beater" then this plane should fit 
the bill. If you want a back up that is as good as your primary the answer 
is, as always, more money :-)

Regards,

Eric.
