RE: The Rascal
Hi all, interesting to read your experiences with the rascal
I have the little electric version (not the lil'rascal) but the next one up. I have nothing but praise for SIG and the quality of their kit, mine flys just great on a geared speed 400 and 7 KAM 1050 cells (10-15 mins no problem). I have to agree about the float, on and on and on. my tactic is to come in steep on tickover and flair at the very last moment (pick a spot and stick to it - or go-around). In light wind, prepare a long shallow final, slightly nose up, using power for height, 3 point landings are order of the day.
I would say it's a great trainer, and superb for "tooling" around if you wan't a relaxed fly
I need a little help though, I need the pattern for the front window (I have a big crack in mine) I have either lost the plan sheet or it's printed on the manual (also missplaced)
anyone care to scan and post the file on here?
