RE: Need help with crosswind landings
cjposada, just think about you statement above , programming rudder with ailerons . So assume you go ahead with this, and do your programming for an expected 10mph cross wind at 45 degrees. What happens if the wind is 13mph at 60 degrees? All your programming is down the shute. Learn to control the rudder correctly , and you will be able to handle any wind at any angle, and using your throttle wisely to perform outstanding landings in any weather condition. As stated above practice flying slow , at altitude, with the wind blowing on the side of your model, and fly a straight line. The model will appear to be slightly sideways, but maintaining a straight line up the strip. Give it a go , and practice practice practice. I now fly in winds up to 30mph , and 90 degrees to the runway. It is a good challenge , and makes you a better pilot. Just remember when the wheels do touch the runway to control the rudder on the ground as the model slows up, straight down the centre line.
