Hi Rev,

I am about 60% complete with mine. I'm wondering if you went with the control throws called for in the instructions and if so, how do you like them. Have you tried Knife edge flight with the plane yet? Is there enough rudder to climb out of it? I am planninng to use a Saito 180 and am hoping to have unlimited vertical.

Blessings, Terry

For those interested in plane, I had a fast landing in cross-wind last week and the wheel pants caught the tires and the plane nosed into the runway. The 6/32 or 8 /32 screws supplied as axles bent on one side. I immediately replaced them with steel axles. Other than that the plane is happy with the ST G2300 and APC 17x8 prop. She has recieved a lot of nice comments on the field.
