Oh I have flown it in much larger areas, it is just pretty windy most of the time.  It is the perfect size plane to fly in my backyard though,If you can call 5 acres a backyard! ,  and I like the plane. I actually like flying it at my house better than I do at my friends because there are no buildings in the way to cause uneven air currents or turbulence across the "runway". <div>
</div><div><div>I made 2 threads on the Apprentice so those who are interested in this plane can see whats good and whats bad about it, and those who have it can also comment on the same. </div><div>Better than one thread that mixes them all up then the negatives can outweigh the positives. </div></div><div> I had 2 prior flights with it last night, both takeoffs were fine, and so were the landings, which for me is unusual since neither one dumped it onto its nose, but touched down smoothly and rolled to a stop. The third takeoff was not so good even though I did have it pointed into the wind.  It hopped at the last moment just before it left the ground, and skewed to the right. I need to smooth out the hoof prints where I fly so I can avoid the bad bounces that helped cause it to veer right last night. <div>

</div><div>When the wind blows up from the south or from the north flying at my house is good, flying at the field is not. East or West the field is good, home is not.  I think it is a great trainer because it is squirrely in wind, teaches you how to react when it goes where you dont want it to. </div><div>
