Default RE: ROO GROUND HANDLING PROBLEMS

coqui- re, SkyJet your correct I have not fitted the speedbrake as yet. I have about 12 flights on the model so far and all landings have been quite fast to say the least, I have the flaps set currently at approx 45 degree's at max deflection but I still want to try setting flaps to 90 degree deflection more like speed brakes and see if this does the trick. I hope to try this fix this comming weekend and will let you know if it helps?

Re- Roo Peter also made some good suggestions, check the main wheels and add slight toe in and check brakes are not dragging on one wheel.
I do wonder at times how some guy's ever managed before gyro's came onto the scene [sm=tongue.gif]
