YES great Knife Edge shot . . the Beryll must be rock solid in KE ??

My last plane (Arresti III) was the best KE plane I have flow. Absolutely solid in KE with no mixes what so ever. Here is a vid a friend took (I like showing it off ).

nice pict,

the Beryll, use a really little mix of RUDDER -> ELEVATOR, only 5%,

To see more KE with a modify pattern plane F3A with those "old internal combustion engines", YS 160 DZ, you can watch it in this link:

First flight. No mix. Right off the table. half the East coast was there on the way to the Nats...so that one has witnesses

Arch also did a knife edge loop with his right hand off the transmitter on that first flight. That was the cleanest plane I have ever built. So far that is, there's quite a few about to get airborne so we'll see!

Great video by the way. not pattern, but really good flying!

Thanks Joe, you know most schemes are a little of this plane and a little of another. I keep pictures of planes I like and when it comes to doing your own scheme it's easier to get an idea of what you want. The fuse on this plane was a copy of Don Sczcurs Brio. The wing design came from a foamie I built 2 years ago. The graphics are all from Dean Funk @
