Nothing left to do but to see if it flies:
Obligatory victory grin:
Overall I'm happy with the outcome of the first flight. The objectives were to verify controllability, check for a functional airspeed indication, explore low-speed handling, and start breaking in the engine. Overall the plane flew great, with no bad habits or heavy-wing tendencies, needing only a slight amount of rudder to keep the ball centered. Mostly I just droned around a few thousand feet above my home field, keeping an eye on engine temperatures. I have a short list of things to check before further flight, but as first flights go this one was pretty trouble-free.
