Default RE: 1/4 SCALE CAP 232 FORUM

I have the prototype wooden version of Genesis Caps and it flies GREAT. The Genesis version was modified from the version I have. It has bigger control surfaces, and some other minor changes. I think the fuselage was also stretched. The big downside of Genesis caps is the fibreglass fuselage combined with a cap. I produces HEAVY tails and light noses. These aircraft were badly tail heavy and required to take that into account in every step of construction. Yours at 11 lbs is the lightest I have ever heard and if you are not too tail heavy, you must have a good flying plane but that is far from the norm.
