Default Harrier 3D 46 - Meh.

Just made a couple flights on my new Harrier 46. It was, ehhh, mediocre. The CG was at 140mm, the frontmost reccomended in the book, and it was a bit squirrely. It had terrible rudder coupling, rolling out of knife-edge in any direction it pleased. This is a result of the pointy wingtips, I believe. My SudoKhoi did the same thing and it had this type of wingtip, as does the Flip. I remedied it by hacking them off. The gear is way too spongey, and I don't think it would stand up to a harrier landing. 3D, however, is great. The plane does most everything, and locks right up in a harrier. I hope it flies better. Probably post again tomorrow.
