Default RE: Sig astro hog bipe

amazing plane! It has great flying characteristics: slow flight, inverted flight, snaps, loops, rolls...you name it and it does it well! The plane is also very easy to land. I've had one deadstick with mine (knock on wood) and actually got a good glide out of it and was able to bring it back to the rwy. I built it stock out of the box, with the only mod being that I used 4-40 pushrods instead of the included nylon pushrods. From my experience, the trim changes drastically with temperature when using the Sig nylon push rods. I installed a Saito 100, and some people on here still won't believe me but, the plane can hold a hover and even pull vertically out of the over with this motor.

It's a great plane! GET TO BUILDIN'!!
