For this, and other light weight planes, flying in any kind of a wind can be a challenge, especially if you are a new pilot. Aside from crashing, there can be a major danger of having your plane carried away by the wind.
I have read so many threads about Firebird type planes, slow sticks and other light planes carried away and never seen again. My first day of flying with an Aerobird was great until the wind took it. I ditched over woods, but never found the plane. some kind of locator can be a big help.

If you fly near woods or a corn field or something you want to add some kind
of locator for your plane. You can see my post on locators here:
