RE: Flying the Funtana 3D Style
how did you have troble was it real wobbley like wanting to flip over thats because you have a very high wing loading use some lighter batteries is just a small amout of weight you need to correct but if you can do the harrier inverted you will than not have to worry about the plane being wobbly cause it will have all the weight hanging down than try applying left aleron and a little speed and do some rolling harriers but try them up high first. who else is flying the funtana 3D style.[8D]

Mine does a lot of neet stuff. There is one trick that the guys at the field say they have never seen. It's also easy to do. It's called an Elevator. I do mine from inverted using 100% mix spoilerons. The plane falls straight down with the fuse level to the ground. Looks pretty cool.

RE: Flying the Funtana 3D Style
yeah, i can do the elevator. Have you tried the rolling elevator? same thing as the elevator, just while its rolling. I have a few Tricks that i dont think have ever been done, but i'm gonna save them for my freestyle when i go to comps. its a secret I fly with No mixing at all, it seems to mess me up.

Awesome video Kyle... Man I wish i could wiggle the sticks like that.
After about 50 flights on mine I finally got a good half dozen tourque rolls. It was awesome--one day i couldnt do it then BAM.. Then it turned freakin winter - 20 so havent flown since then (november) I cant wait to get my new and improved funtana out in the spring.
thanks for the video!!!

Kyle is making me feel like a big wimp with all that snow in the video I won't go out to fly, but then Kyle looks half my age. Dam kids.
Nice flying Kyle, looks like you are having some serious fun.

RE: Flying the Funtana 3D Style
Hey Guys, bet you can't do this trick with your Funtana. I was flying my bird (Funtana-Saito80 powered) doing all the normal 3D stuff when the engine flamed out, had plenty of altitude to get back in, all of a sudden the proverbial GUST of wind landed the bird in a Ga. Pecan tree. Called tree climbing buddy of mine he lowered it about 35 feet to the ground with a rope. Damage- broken prop, THATS IT! No holes in the covering no cracked ribs NOTHING! The R/C gods were smiling on/at me that day. TeePee
