<<...I can make your style of flying sound stupid too...>>

Goodness; methinks I touched a nerve.

I don't recall the word "stupid" being used anywhere in my post. Although I can see where you would get that impression, such was not my intention.

And no, I cannot hover a fixed wing model. I have helicopters if I feel the urge to hover something. I did try it, but I don't think my model airplane has sufficient power-to-weight; it kept falling to the tail.

Can you hold a nose-in hover with a model helicopter? Trust me, that is just as difficult as keeping a plank standing on it's tail.

Sorry to have appeared to be a weisenheimer, and to have brought out the same gene in you...<G>
