RE: Saito - Pro FG 14 Tips and tricks only!!!

Kenti2 ForcesR is correct from my experience. You are too lean on the HS. Try this next time you fly. Open HS one more click. Fly at full throttle and pull an abrupt vertical. Be prepared for a...

RE: Saito - Pro FG 14 Tips and tricks only!!!

RE: Glassing 40 size

Hi!
I am currently completing a Northstar 455 and am considering using water born varithane instead of resin with the 3/4 oz. cloth. I am thinking it might be a little lighter than resin plus not...
