I plant my plane at the grass of a field.Must I water it every day?
In my last flight I did a big hole on the left wing but I didn't fixed that. After that I tryed to fligh it... Every thing was perfect at the beggining but later... Suddenly my plane turned to the left and this was its end. It crashed with the nose down, it PLANTED.Must I water it every day? :'(

Cover it with balsa mulch and you can cut the watering schedule in half. What's that? You don't have any balsa mulch? Well, here's a great way to make your own balsa mulch. Take a perfectly good plane and dive into a paved runway. Remove the metal scraps and wa-la! you've got mulch!

I made a mistake last night apparently about 1.1 mistakes high. Almost put it straight in, about 75% throttle.

The need for watering is dependent upon your expectations for a new crop. If you are growing wings, you definately need to water daily. If it is only fuselages, then twice weekly should do it. And as already noted -- use coverless balsa mulch.

Besides watering, be sure and use a good herbicide. You don't want to be over-run with helicopters.

I like to put a little balsarite on it from time to time it comes out much better in the fall.
also i've got a lot of foam mulch left over if you need any, i dunno if it's as good as balsa mulch but it's pretty cheap.
