I have been flying the ELECTRAFUN aircraft for some time now with much success.For those not familar with this type of aircraft (i think it is only sold in Australia) it's of the aerobird shape with three channels rudder,elevator and engine speed.It was starting to become a little boring and so decided to purchase something a little more challenging.I settled on the VENOM PITTS SPEZIAL(i think this is also only sold in Australia).Controls are the same as the electrafun . The problem iam having is I hand launch it as the instructions say but all it wants to do is head straight for the ground after a short distance.It doesn't mention in the instructions about doing a pre glide check.I have tried twice to hand launch this model once with no wind the other with a slight breeze.
Iam a bit hesitant try again as I don't want to destroy what is a nice looking biplane.Can anybody help please? Is it correct to stand still to hand launch or should you be walking at a fast pace ?What am I doing wrong?HELP
