Default RE: Sig Wonder

[:-]I fly a Wonder with an OS 15FP. It has 2 Futaba quick mini servos on the aileron and elevator
and a S148 on the throttle. It has been flyin for over 8 years on the same 270mah battery. I never
could get a tank over 3 oz in the fuselage. I launch mine be myself. I use a Hot Shot glow battery,
extend my antenna and make sure I throw at about 30 degrees up into the wind. I have flown a lot
of Wonders and a 25 engine is good if your going pull combat tail. If my prop quits in the
horizantal position I land the plane on our asphalt runway. Don't throw the plane to hard or you
starve the engine. I have thought about removing the throttle servo to make it lighter but haven't
figured a way to keep the engine @ full throttle. Have fun.
