Default RE: Segull 300S

I've been flying it for about 3 months. Probably 40 flights.

1. throw out the control horns and other crap. Buy Dubro. This is an aerobatic plane, treat it as such.
2. it goes together like a dream, however, you need to reinforce (30 min epoxy) the firewall, and the wing mount.
3. it flies like a dream with proper setup and even though I have a large fuel tank in it, its handeling on the ground is great
4. lots of people can't land a plane correctly. Its all about the glide slope, and throttle control
5. I have a TT 61 in it. almost unlimited vertical, don't overpower it. I had a buddy with a 75 in it and it was too much.
6. remember that aerobatics are about control not speed for the vast majority of manuvers, a different prop will do a lot.
