Wind speed was negligable, a slight breeze if that. A stronger headwind would have probably helped. I've been trying to implement rudder slowly in each flight and have actually found myself using it more and more on landing without thinking about it. That said I know I need to use it more for normal flight maneuvers.

My my next bird I was thinking about was at least a 60 sized. Originally I thought a 4 star would be a good second low wing but now it seems like there's quite a few intermediate low wings out now that can handle probably more aerobatics than I know how to perform but are still stable flyers. Been looking at a great planes escapade 60, hangar 9 pulse XT 60, 4 star 60 or 120. Any others to think about?

I think I'll get the avistar up and flying again with some larger wheels and an 11x6 prop and triple check the tuning to make sure it's hitting its peak rpm for take off.
