Default RE: seduction freestyle plans.

There are definetly some tradeoffs in terms of the high alpha performance of the Freestyle. Inverted it does high alpha fairly well but upright is not very good at all. Flat spins and tumbles like a beast. It will flat spin in stick positions that seem counterintuitive. I can even get in to an inverted climbing spin with very little effort. It is unbelievably stable in a hover. I hardly ever have to use rudder.

The lack of high alpha performance is not a set back to me at all, as that is not my forte at this time. I just bought a profile as a high alpha trainer so i'll be there in not too long at all. Hopefully by then Archie can get a US distributor set up, so i can give the Capiche a try. Its out of my price range at this time as it will cost about $250 to get one delivered. I can get the Seductions delivered to the US for $150 as a comparison. If archie can't get them distributed then i might have to go with the Wildstyle which will probably be superior in high alpha to the C50 but nowhere near the precision.

Surrey3styla,
Thanks for the info. It was largely due to your reccomendation that i got the Freestyle in the first place so now that you like the C50 as well i hope i can find a way to get one. Very encouraging news. More Capable toys!!!!!
