Default RE: Bipes no harder than monoplanes?

Hi NightOne,

I'm a very new recruit to flying bipes although not new to R/C. I have a CG Ultimate with a Saito 125A that I maidened three weekends ago and it now has six flights on her. I can only agree with the comments to date. When you back off the power it drops and slows but is an absolute joy to fly. Mine didn't require any trim to fly hands off and had no more tendancy to torque left on take off than any of my other models.

With regards to orientation just make small control movements if you lose it and you will soon pick it up. Flying closer also helps. When landing make certain you have the strip before going to low idle.

Cheers,

Colin
