I noticed the manual (on the net) for the ARF Big Bee included ailerons, so I wondered if they were necessary, or nice to have. I did plug the rudder into the aileron slot, which is how I used to fly my glider-'til I tried to make a low level downwind turn! I have a nice Hanger 9 Jet pilot which seems the ultimate ha ha pilot. Think I'll put Air Force markings on it-just haven't figured out which air force.
