DTB, you're nuts. I like the monster front wheel to hold that big-***** engine up[X(] The superstar was my first glow plane.I found that it rolled quicker if I gave it full aileron and rudder. And as it has been said before, you have to give some down elevator when your inverted. Towards the end of mine, I converted it to a tail dragger. I figured since I flew off grass, I could just let the tail drag without putting a skid or anything on the back(big mistake). It worked really well - for awhile. If you look close, you'll notice that the elevator control horn is the lowest point on the rear of the plane. I had that clevis come off in flight - not much you can do at that point other than throttle back and pray.
HAHA, you are probably right. I can actually make the trainer torque roll maybe 1.5 full revolution before it falls out. It doesn't like it at all. It is wild to see a trainer hovering then starting to torque roll. A friend had a U-Can-Do to go in a few weeks ago unfortunately and he gave me the main landing gear which was the pefect width for the trainer since the U-Can-Do is so narrow.
The Saito pulls it very well.
When I am training a new club student, I make it a practice to have them to learn to fly inverted because you never know when you may find yourself in a situation where it has become inverted and they need to know what to do if that happens.
Pilot Chad, if you are new to RC, once you get more time under your belt with your SS 40, you will start wanting to change it up a little. Take it slow and you will be fine. I just noticed that you have over 900 post so I take it that you are doing like me and like to play around with trainers as they are fun to fly.
