Yesterday we were able to program the flaps to help then ailerons and what a change....... now the glider is rolling faster as it should have been since the first flight. I guess that's why in the manual they tell you to program your flaps also as ailerons.

Last change was to program the iGyro (70% gains) and that took care of all the strange attitudes like the sinking nose on power. The glider is now flying very smoothly and ready for the coming season of flying.

Low passes at full speed and after a dive are so fun. It's amazing the speed of this thing and how much energy it can carry. Not difficult to do over 5 loops on a row with the turbine on idle just because of that energy.

Wing13z.... hopefully you can maiden yours soon.
