Status: offline 		want a couple of tips Chip?
the plane looks to fly outside tighter than inside most of the manuevers look that way anyway. try shifting the handle if its adjustable or flap to elevator neutral slightly
inside squares look a little soft on the corners.outside were better.
some of the best triangles i have seen.
vertical eight tighter on top than the bottom (tighter outsides) same with the overhead
clover intersections shifted off to the side. probably due to the tighter outside again.
all in all not a bad pattern probably in the high 400 maybe more point range

Hey Dave thanks for the tips you your exactly right thats how it feels especially on calm days. That flight was with the heavy batteries as well. When I use the light ones its much better. The plane weighs 58oz in the video and flies reasonably well for a profile I would think, but it is night and day at 53oz. I am waiting for my new batts to show up they sent the wrong ones last week. Once I get them I will put up another vid if I get a chance. Thanks again and maybe we can meet up to do some flying sometime.

Status: offline 		sounds great chip .
if you get up to northern california (sacramento area) let me know. i took the last season off from stunt but intend to do some competition next season.
i fly at the woodland/davis field its a great site, controline circles and rc at the same site.
the best stunt flyers in northern california compete up here.
fancher,fitzgerald,buck,aron and granderson just to name a few.
pm me if you want to chat.
that video looked to be a pretty decent pattern especially given its a profile.
maybe you can show me some tips on my rc flying, i hear your a pretty decent flyer.

Status: offline 		Have any of you ever tried flying a control line pattern with an RC model? Lot of skiding turns but wingovers and horizontal eights look pretty convincing (except no 5 ft corners).

I watched Chip fly inverted circles less than ten feet off the ground with Steve Lampert's Arixtra and they were not too much larger in diameter than a control line circle. And I believe there was less deviation from level, including the roll axis, than when he flew his control line plane. By the way, Steve couldn't watch.
