RE: Flat Spin - TOUGH TO DO IT.....

Hi!

Plane is Thunder Tiger 3D Spirit, and its total weight without 8oz fuel is 5 lb (5.03 lb). Engine is Rossi 53, Genesis throttle pipe, Perry 9500 carb with Perry PV 30 pump, 12.25x3.75 APC, Fuel Byron FAI, Enya 3 plug, what else

....Today I tried Flat Spin with my electric Eagle - now it started to look like it (still too much wind, about 16-18 kts [:@]). Why it liked to flat spin better when inverted? Is there some black magic in rudder input as they always instruct to use right ruder when inverted, and left rudder when belly down? I just moved CG further back, now it´s 6.7" - but it´s your fault if I can´t manage it after the (last) take off

. Thanks a lot again for your help.
