Hello group, 

    Pleased to announce first flight of my Subaru EG-33  Velocity STD RG on
Saturday, Oct 4th. I have just over 3 hours on it at the moment and am
working out a few bugs with the gear box cooling, but other than that, all
systems are working well. I have been able to achieve 165kts indicated at
8500 ft, but run out of down trim. I am adjusting my canard about 1/2 - 2/3
bubble negative from where it was originally set. I would like to know if
any other builders have have similar issues with canard incidence.
