Hi David
Thank you for the kind words.
He's in good hands!

The Draken is a very nice handling jet. Like most delta's however, it's all AOA during the landing phase. As a result, much of the underside of the wing and fuselage are subject to even the minor disturbances, particularly in the roll axis!
Now that competition rules have relaxed the gyro ban, I have installed the Power Box Igyro 3e. Should be very stable this season, with even greater handling in all areas of performance! Most importantly in the roll axis at the slow landing speeds we operate.
Take care,
Franko
