Default RE: First-time Firebird Freedom Sucess!

Hi back guys and galls !!

Leo L thanks for your advice. I must say that my daughter did not fly the freedom a lot but was mostly doing circle up hight with no problem as to keeping altitude and getting the plane going where she ( dad ) wanted to. I found the act to be OK but the plane must be high in the air for the device to work. It did help a couple of times because my daughter was giving too much down and the ACT slowed the descend.

I tried the freedom on dubro skis last week end and boy do i love doing touch and goes on the snow. Indeed the plane is sometimes touchy in regard to the airspeed needing to be a bit high on take off and landing but at the same time it is a good flyer in moderate wind ( penetrates well) i found.

The bomb and parachute module is a lot of fun and we practice with getting the parachute spot landing. Wayyyy fun !!

Good luck all !!
