Default Sr Falcon ARF


I have noted the various comments on the new Sr. Falcon ARF with regard to the dihedral - - reducing it by half, reducing it almost to nothing. Has anyone had experience flying one with the unmodified dihedral? I am looking for a relaxing Sunday flyer but after over 50 years of RC flying and mainly pattern planes, I am not looking for a basic trainer.

I built two Sr. Falcons back in the 60's and 70's and flew them on reeds. I am sure I used the prescribed dihedral and remember them as great flyers. I seem to recall being able to do a number of maneuvers even with reeds. The plane was not thought of as a trainer.

Any comments on how the ARF flies with kit dihedral would be most welcome.
