There were no flaps on this Beaver. A long take off run just means I deliberately kept the wheels on the ground to ensure more than adequate airspeed at take off. I can't believe they all fly like this one did although a very similiar episode happeded at our club with a 60 size VMAR Stick. d_bodary is right, reflexing the ailerons up a little can't hurt, maybe that's all this model needs to make the V-MAR semi-symetrical airfoil behave. Floats will push the wing loading way up and definitely won't make a poor performer any better. Aren't these forums great, right now I'm terrified to maiden my Great Planes Super Decathlon on floats !!
