Default Robbe/Schulter Whopper

Hello Guys, I Flew my Whopper about 3 years. The only problem I had was with landing!! My best advice is to set it up as per Manual -- do the string on the tail wheel thing and DO NOT hold your flair once your on the ground!! This lifts the main gear off and you tip over on the tail wheel and blades - in turn they slap the Rudders and its time to replace them. The Climbing left turn on takeoff is 100% correct!! For some odd reason this thing wants to go left so just let it, then after you have speed it will fly like a regular airplane!! You DO NOT want to dead stick this 10lb. Beast in so take your time and get that Rossi fine tuned and running well!!
Oh, one more thing, After awhile you Will get cocky with it and do some loops and rolls -- My advice is Don't try to fly it inverted!!! Unless you like meteorites!! Email me for photo's and I think I still have a manual around.
