Default 4* 60

Groundforce,

I'm going to build a 4* 60 over the winter for next year. Its interesting that you say its easier to fly than the LT-40. I had been trying some of the sport flyers in G2 and thought they were easier to fly than the LT-40.

Some of its trainer characteristics seem to be problems when you get some experience. Especially its unwillingness to land. I've had perfectly lined up landings (repeatedly) and then had it float at 3 feet up all the way down the runway (200').

Also, I was trying some basic aerobatics and it loops fine, but doing rolls is a bear due to the dihedral.

BTW, I've cut the Hanger 9 mount in half and it looks like its going to fit in the existing holes.

Thanks for all the advice everyone.
