RC giant Japan Zero DLE 120CC Maiden Tail Heavy 2018 May Chino 

Beautiful model and very well flown through the maiden flight. Once the C of G is sorted, it'll be a STUNNER!

Great flying.....gray plane-gray skies, good job keeping it in sight.

One hell of a good job flying!!! CG? Sure I think so...balanced it this morning!!! Right!!!!!!!! One very lucky builder!!!

Maiden flight is always difficult to predict moment in project. You have landed safe, so you are the winner.

Awesome landing despite tail heaviness! Great piloting skills!

banzai pilot did a great job nothing worsethan a tail heavy model well done

Nice job with a tail heavy aircraft. Sometimes the "recommended" CG is off and that can really increase the pucker factor during the first flight.

You mean to tell me the builder didn't do a weight & balance before flying?! He was lucky.

Great landing for a tail heavy model. A lot of warbirds are tail heavy and need nose weight. DHC Beavers too.

Did anyone even consider a static CG check before flying? 25% from root leading edge chord is a good starting point.

I thought giant scale meant it was bigger than the real plane.

Superb landing, looking forward to the next flight with better center of gravity.

Wasn't seriously aft CG or it would have been uncontrollable. Not bad really. Nice landing. Some down elevator mixed with flaps is helpful. What (brand) model is this? Nice.

That didn't land like a tail heavy aircraft.

Beutiful airplane and great job flying.

Beautiful airplane!! Great job bringing that in!! They'll have you playing suck when they land👍

What is that blue box in the fuse? Looks like that's a heavy piece of equipment...

Nice history lesson but poor choice of words. The Hawaiian islands were never invaded on December 7th 1941 the islands were attacked. He was not promptly killed, his head was caved in with a rock by a female Hawaiian after her husband was shot 3 times. Very good story, in fact it should be made into a movie.

watch that foot hand propping!

Looked tail heavy even before he took off....very short nose to scale.....built the tail end too heavy....The real aircraft were built very light weight with no protection....Looked a handful after he took off pitching and ballooning all over the sky. Dropping some flap and slowing it down helped a lot in the landing phase.

Looks like a Zero Model 22.

Very kool

its not flying smoothly

Nihiau

giant ????? i have has 2 bigger than that
