BTW, I edited the post title. I've been informed that what I have experienced is not typical for a Yellow ARF so I'm just changing to be careful on pull pull in general.

Ok, it was late one night when I installed the pull-pull that came with the Yellow Giles .60 kit. Since I had never installed a pull-pull before I followed the instructions and crossed the cables.

Maiden flight almost ended in disaster. Got a lot glitches but was able to get her down. Come to find out the cables in the kit are NOT coated. I replaced with kevlar (real easy stuff to work with btw) and it cleared right up.

Just wanted to let anyone else know to throw out the pull-pull cables that come with these kits before you're not so lucky.

BTW, before I flew it I ranged checked it and it checked fine. When I got it down I did another range check and once again, it was fine. Then I range checked on the other side of the plane and couldn't get 25 feet. The cables just happen to be between the antenna and myself on that side.
