Default 3D with GTrick 90

This is my 2nd GTrick and today i flew it for the 2nd time. There was a gust of about 17--18 knots blowing in from the east with variable winds. I managed to do 6 consecutive stalled aileron rolls in the wind, which appeared to be more like faster harrier rolls.

I even managed a stalled knife edge, gradually decreasing the power and increasing rudder input...again upwind, which gave it excessive lift.

Harriers were as smooth as anything, sumthing which i've been trying to do for a long time, but havent accomplished perfectly.

p.s
my 1st GTrick crashed into a tree when i was coming in for a landing. I bet you guys haven't seen the colour scheme on this b4!!

man thats Awesome! Someday i plan to try stalled maneuvers but i haven't quit got there yet. Di you land at 0 ground speed? I can do that really well with a trainer. Also try landing backwards next time you fly in heavy wind. BTW that's an awesome color scheme!

Thanks man, and Yes i landed at near zero ground speed. All i had to do was manage power n at the final approach the winds became so fierce that it was truly hard getting the plane down with it flapping around.

Landing backwards is not an option, since i just lost a plane. I can't afford to lose another precious thing!

Nice colour scheme RCFREEK [8D]

Design of airframe looks so much like the Flair Swallow
