Raven profile
The Global Raven kit brings back many fond memorys for me.
It seems it was always my backup plane when I crashed whatever my primary plane was at moment.
I got more hours of flying from this Raven then any other plane.
It would vertical hover all the way to the ground with a OS46FX,.with the baffle out and a 11.5X3.75APC . If you put baffle in muffler the plane would tailslide all the way to the ground at full throttle.
But you really had to increase the throws to make it tumble. and would do a inverted flat spin at a very slow desent.
My biggest gripe was the week vertical stab and poor rudder control. I think the ailerons were so huge that they overpowered
the tail feathers.
But as you can see from picture I found a windsock at a fly-in at Wilkesboro NC.
For the money ,I think it was a good kit, it would fly very slow.
Too bad you can't find them anymore.
