Just for information, I DID compete in the 2018 Scale RC Nationals. What I learner was that I was WAY under prepared and under practiced. That won't happen again.
I used a Hangar 9 bashed Super Cub, in "Fun Scale Novice". Came in last. Winner was a foamie T-28 that was well flown.
Not sure what fun scale plane I will use. But I hope to use my Fournier in standoff scale.
Thank You to everyone who has chipped in. I'll probably add weight incrementally. If I have a strong headwind, I may need to penetrate better. But maybe just throttle control would work too.
Such a challenging hobby. Mentally and physically.
Thanks again.
