Funtana 90 Flight problems??
Hi all,
Well I am new to the Funtana and have the original Funtana 90. It has been converted to an electric Funtana 90. but I don't like the way it flyies. Anyone have problems with Wing rock? If so how did you fix it. I can't even slow the thing down with out it rocking. The slow flight characteristic s seem to be pretty poor. Anyone else have this problem with their Funtana 90.

How slow is slow. For me my F90 came in as slow as a trainer for landings and there is no wing rock. Were you executing harriers?

I have no problems with my Funtana. It will rock a little in a harrier but that is all. May want to check your CG. I am not sure if that will help you or not but it's worth a try.. I set my CG far enough back that when I go inverted I need just a touch of up elevator to keep it level. My funtana will land at walking speeds and no rock or fall out at all!
Good Luck..

PS.. What engine are you running.. You may have it too heavy!

check to make sure the wings are 100% true and that the ailerons and stab/elevators are not warped,and make sure they are set at center
