I thought the 400ft rule was never passed and/or only applied when within 3 miles of an airport? Regardless, this means I break the rule flying just f3a, and that glider/soaring flyers break them even more so. This just doesnt make sense to me...

Im trying to keep everything as simple as possible, as Von had already suggested. Im liking the idea of doing away with ailerons and using a sort-of V-tail instead. Also, I am gathering I should look into using alower Kv electric motor in conjuntion with the biggest prop possible. This all sounds reasonable and I shall try to work around that. If anyone has any motor, prop, battery, and esc reccomendations- I would be more than happy to listen. Id rather not have a gearbox. Its just one more thing to have to maintanance and possibly fail.
