Gun my man ... the Scanner is soooooo easy to bring in on a dead stick. I love to fly mine inverted slowly and then flop it over and over. Heheheeee ... Please make sure that you use tubing on the clevise, the clevise will get a little soft when its is soaking in castor, please change it if you can, its worth it.

Remember that the CG can be taken all the way back to 3" or even 3.25"without being twitchy. I am flying No. 3 now with a TT46, tuned pipe and a 11x6. The prop was pushing 14K RPM and I got decent amount of torque. I put my battery behind the tank when I was not running with a tuned pipe.

Its a great low wing trainer and no brainer. But you will get bored with it soon if you want to move on to precision flying. You can go from the Scanner to the WM Super Sport.
