RE: Having trouble with my first tail dragger
Ok, this time out I got it a lot slower before landing, but the landings where not nearly as smooth and it usually bounced once because it was stalling fast.... but, when it did touch it got slow enough to control within the first 5-6 feet, so I think I just need to practice a little and find the sweet spot where I can slow it down without causing a bounce inducing sink rate.
The plane is a blast, but its WAY more plane than my trainer. I did some rolls today after I started getting confident in the engine and control surface setup and its pretty dang cool to see it roll that fast. Inverted flight is 100 times easier than the trainer and outside loops are a snap instead of a slow painful thing.
