rcaddict NICE !!!!! Good luck on the maiden,, She looks great.
Cutaway Actually it was so windy I didn't really put her through too much testing, on the video of the crash landing (I think that video) you can hear the wind whipping pretty good,, I'd have to say between 25 - 35 mph at times, so actually the bipe flew kind of like a brick, very suttle moves had to be used,,,,, and If I tried to do a loop it would start the loop and then just want to snaproll out of it,,, it never completed a full loop once, it was a blast to fly though,, I love a good challenge, as long as you stayed level and kept up the speed she flew pretty good, I might try it again when its not quite so windy, I think that made a huge difference, The wind doesn't intimidate me at all, which is probably a bad thing,, LOL But I'm sure it would have survived if I could have brought her in a little hotter without a cross breeze,
there isn't much wing there with out the top wing, so at slow speeds,,, like landing speed,,, she gets pretty radical.. just have to glue the wing back together and it will be good to go again... Oh and I broke the the stabilzer as I tripped walking through the door with it when I got home.. It was a day of trashing planes for me I tell you. even when I wasn't flying them.
