I've got a 29% giles 202 powered by a Brison 3.2 swinging a 20X8 prop.

Additionally I'm also flying a Midwest Extra 300 (flat slab style tail plane) powered by a Brison 4.2 swinging a 22X8 prop.

I 've come to the conclusion that the aircraft are pretty heavy.... probably a result of heavy construction and engines that are too large for the airframe. However, both aircraft have unlimited vertical.

I have tried learning to hover at a safe altitude... but seem not to have any success.

Can anyone provide some information about learning to hover, or provide a link a tutorial?

Cheers,

Marcus.
