I built mine as a 3 channel. With the amount of dihedral the Senior has it flies fine. It's just slow to react. The second plane I had was an Avistar. I thought it had pretty snappy control reaction, but that is what you would expect coming from a Kadet Senior. I had no trouble with the transition. Building it again, I think I would take out some dihedral, add some strip ailerons, install a minimum of a strong 46/47 maybe a 60 and not use braided cable for the nose wheel control. The good thing about the Kadet Senior is, it's Big. You can really see. Also, it will fly slow. Great plane to learn on. But its a lot of work to build it. The LT-40 is easier.

Good flying,
Tom
