Default RE: Pusher Turbulence Experience

To start these funny airplanes I designed them big enough for an electric starter to fit! The Curtiss Pusher has a main wing span of 48" and it flies on an OS26fs. That is 96"+ of wingspan! Can you say most RC models are overpowered? I do! It flies 'on the wing'. Dead stick landings are not desirable due to drag. Thanks for the compliments but these airplanes are not as difficult to build as imagined. They just look complicated.
