Default RE: Royal Zero Kit Build into Rufe

Graham,
Thanks for the post of the Maratuka Rufe video. It's great to know that the smaller 40-50 size plane flies so well. I would think the wing loading is higher on this 60" span plane but it looks like it flies solid. You can tell by it's descent that it is on the heavy side but not much different than my Kingfisher. I didn't see any flaps deployed so putting them on would help with the landings. Maybe in a year or so I will start on mine. Once Royal Farms has copied the kit.
