Default RE: Focus Sport - Bleed Off Speed/Landing


ORIGINAL: crankpin

Tim, Alex - Thanks. Slowest I can get this YS110S, is 2150 RPM, on 14X8 APC. I am not pulling down to minimum idle, so probably at around 2450-2500 RPM on landing. Trying to stretch the landing, as you said, Tim.
Look's like adding just a little power, it has been gaining altitude from decent approach, sometime I have to go around, and as you know, contest, only land once. Thin airfoil here. On my smaller pattern plane's, thicker semi-symm airfoil, get it to almost a walk. This bigger plane, new experience here. Throttle/elevator, need more practice on that. Nice set up, no wing dropping off.

Program in about 10mm of spoileron. Huge difference.

NEVER use flaperon.
