Here is a video of me landing the UF in a slight crosswind.
I held it off until the stall which you can see happened at a pretty low speed.

So I will still use the turbine top and bottom cover to assist with holding the saddle tanks in place, UNLESS i decide on a fixing method the same as what Paul did.
This weekend actually for the first time saw a UF in the flesh flying, I was shocked how fast it is and I was trembling to see at what speeds the aircraft comes into land. It was the maiden flight, however both flights the landing was pretty intense. This model lands no where near as slow as my viper. So basically i'm going to have to take it slow.
Like I say, I'm going to have to bend over for this model, whether I bend over by my self or pull up my socks, bending over I will bend. LOL
