Waterfall--flaps up or down??
 

When doing the Waterfall, do you put the flaps up or down with the down elevator? Thanks

I dont use either one, but some people use flaperons (ailerons down as flaps) In a completely stalled attitude I think they just deflect the air away from the elevator but you should just try them and see what you think

RE: Waterfall--flaps up or down??
 

depends on the model,

with my hype 3D, both ailerons go up when elevator goes down to give a really tight waterfall, on my capiche50 I just use elevator.

experiment and try with and without.

Also a rearward c of g helps.

I'll second the rearward CG. My Funtana would not waterfall without spoilerons(flaps up). Then I moved the CG back and it dosn't need them.
