Default RE: Lanier Indicator advice--Please!

Hello Ptulmer,

It's good to know that about the strapping tape. I suppose a little dihedral goes a long way if I make it as far as a hundred flights. The CG is spot on and if anything, I usually have a little more control surface throw than needed.
I've never been able to fly fast planes, the lazy flyers are more my style, and I've always liked sailplane configurations anyway, to me a little more wing area is a good thing. Maybe I'm wrong there? Being here in central Illinois, most guys fly bigger planes due to the wind conditions. I get out on the calmer days.

I did check the Ace Hobby site (the old Ace R/C company?) but I'm not seeing any of the Ace wings like they used to sell separately. Am I looking in the worng place?
