Default RE: Pitch sensitive....

Yes -the basics
I flew a model yesterday which had lateral stability such that you could roll a little and the model continued on in a straight line-
To reword this - banking did not produce a turn.
getting used to this is tricky at first because ALL turns are rudder turns (in level flight)
This type of stuff may seem all wrong -to anyone who has not tried these models with huge lateral areas but we areworking with cgs-close to neutral point and wing loadings of 2-ounces per sq ft -plus power which will allow acceleration from any attitude.
