RE: Flapperons V.S. Spoilerons
Heres a small update on the foam yak. The weather sucked today. It was cloudy, cold and the wind was howling (15-20mph). I only got 2 flights on it today. The first flight was used to get me accustomed to the high wind. The 2nd flight I did a lot of hovering down on the deck. Of course the wind always blows the wrong way at our field this time of year so I moved to the other side of the runway and hovered back towards the shelter. It was hard to get the plane settled into the hover b/c of the high winds but once you found exactly where the wind was blowing from hovering was very stable (considering the wind). I found out that when I hovered really close in that the exhaust seemed to fog my contacts up a little bit when the wind blew it back in my face and I had to keep blinking to be able to keep the model clear. I was going to do my famous plane catch while hovering but it I just didnt feel good about it today due to the puffs of wind that would come along from time to time. Other than hovering I did a lot of super deep 3D snaps, rolling circles, inverted harriers, and a handful of rolling loops (which I am still perfecting). I will try to get out again around tuesday of this week. The forecast shows good weather through wednesday then more wind.
