This!!!

Dom, its great to see you back. The Major Woody builds are the best!

If I may suggest something for your flashes, put crow in with full flaps. Crow will help the flash in the slow world arena.

You will trade lift for slow speed control. And this is a GOOD thing!!

How do you get more lift? Easy, the stick on the left! More throttle.

It will sink more predictably and as crow increases effective wash out, it will have a lower tendency to snap. And most importantly, you will have MORE control!

In my classic flash, I had to mix some down elevator with crow (~1/4 inch) and I could spot land my flash with my throttle. I flew that darn airplane so hard and fast (like throttle at full throttle the whole time) and long, I ran out of gas more than once when we had 6 flashes up in the sky at once!
