Dearest Philip,
I wish to send you this mail to thank you for your contributions and
efforts to evolve F3J design to the next level. I put an hour on my
new Perfect yesterday and have to tell you I am very impressed. It
is a beautiful, great handling model, with fantastic capabilities.
The Team at Samba are master craftsman and the Perfect is a
Masterpiece of design, fabrication, and presentation.
In simple terms I like the way it looks, I like the way it launches,
I like the way it responds, and I really like the way Perfect Lands.
In fact it would be really hard to get a 95 with a Perfect. Tomorrow I
have a 3 hour practice session planned, and then I will fly it in a
contest on Sunday where there will be 50 contestants. I expect that
the Perfect will generate great interests. I haven't got the model
totally sorted out yet, but with my limited flying time on the model
I can see it is a Champion, and will help me on those long 15 minute
flights in the flyoffs that I seem to have trouble with.
My very best to all those involved, You, Mustafa, and the team at
Samba, you are all friends and I congratulate you on the results of
your efforts. Many Thanks to all of you, I look forward to seeing
you soon..... Now go to Martin and Kick Ass !!!!
Best Regards Larry Jolly
And I now forgive you for lying to me when I asked you about the NEW
MODEL DESIGN
Baron helping as Landing Coach, he gets big laughs when I fall on my
butt!
You know I am going to have to replace parachutes more often now
that I fly a Perfect !
You know flying sites are at a premium in Southern California.
Always Pick a field free of obstacles for those critical first
flights.
Lets see I bet I can hit that one, and that one,and that one........
The Perfect is really a lovely model. GREAT JOB, WELL DONE !
YEA BABY! NOW THAT'S WHAT I WAS TALKIN ABOUT !!
THE PERFECT EVERYTHING AN F3J WINNER SHOULD BE !

Philip,
I have a link for the scores from the first contest with
Perfect. Very Hot conditions with high humidity made for tough
air. The Perfect and I are getting along just fine. The landing
is a line 3 meters long with 10 point graduations for each 25 CM
from the centerline. I split the line on all 3 landings. Have
you notice how the Perfect slips like a full size glider pretty
cool.
Best regards Larry
