With the wind? Or into the wind? They're supposed to be launched into the wind to have enough lift over the wings. I agree about the strykers abilty to handle the wind, thats exactly what inspired my signature below

RE: Another Happy Striker owner
I bought 4 servo gear sets for my "B" because they kept stripping. When they ran out I noticed that only 1 gear kept stripping. If you look in the gear set there is one gear that is roughly the same just a little taller and the inside diamater is a little smaller. Take a razor knife and trim it to the same size( as close as possible, mines not perfect). Then if you have a drill index find a bit that moves freely in the stripped gear and ream the one you just cut until it also moves freely. I've only had to do this once. It seams that gear is stronger and will last a lot longer. Before I did it my "B" would strip gears all the time, haven't stripped one since.
