Went plane flying at the field again!

After doing some laundry in the morning while charging my batteries, I headed out to the field for some afternoon flying around 2:30 pm, arriving right at 3 pm.  There were some other people there this time, but they weren't flying.  They were all looking at some other member's plane?

I brought out the P51 and Habu micro jet.  I wanted to try using the flaps to take off and land on the P51 and just fly the Habu around some.  Well I had way too much elevator mixed in with the flaps and as soon as the tail lifted off, the plane nosed over and the prop hit the ground!  I lowered the elevator mix and tried again a few more times, but still found it way easier to land without using flaps?  For the rest of the session I didn't use the flaps, as with the wind it was really difficult to hold a steady descent.  Maybe I'll try it again next time, but after the wind dies down?

I also need to add some down elevator trim on both the P51 and Habu.  Flying into the wind I need to hold down elevator on both to just maintain a level flight path.  Also, the controls are way to sensitive on the Habu out of beginner mode.  I need to adjust the expo and use low rates to make it easier to fly.

Oh ya! I finally did a barrel roll in real life with the P51!  I’ve been doing them in the sim forever, but was always chicken to try it for real since its usually windy when I fly in the afternoon.  I got some extra altitude and rolled all the way around! 😎I think I did it like 4 times?  One time I lost orientation after exiting the roll and heading back into the wind.  Then the plane did something I wasn’t expecting and dove towards the ground!  I think I might have rolled too far and went inverted when I was thinking it should be upright!  Luckily I kept rolling and pulling up until the plane went back up into the air then I got it back under control  Whew!
