I just finished the Kyosho AT-6. really nice plane. it replaced a P-51 that had radio failure over Christmas. I thought the whole thing was real good. Only problem i ran into were the retract wells. They claim to be designed for a set of Hobbico Mechanical but they are not.
The depth of it is not deep enough. Therfore you need to do what you have to do to dig it out. Bit of a pain but nothing serious. The T- 6 is seriously tail heavy. I am running a G90 up front plus 1 lb lead bar. have not flown it yet do to lousy weather but should happen shortly.
Now flying a sport plane has nothing on a scale. You land your scale like your stik and your going to take it home in a garbage bag. You need to land with some throttle on or your gonna stall it. Sport planes are very forgiving, Scales are not. I have been at this 5 years and seen darn near all of it. But never seen a stik stall and go in. I have seen them go in but not on a stall. You get to slow on a scale or even a sportscale and its gonna flip.
As far as bouncing down the runway, That is technique.
Now you may be goo at fying your stik but when it comes time to maiden some scale thing, have some help or have somebody do it for you .
You may have your hands full to a point of losing the plane. I had a first flight on a big P-51 last year. Soon as those wheels left the ground it went into a hard and fast left turn. Thought it was a gonner but I had help froma guy who was moving the trims for me on my tx. Turned into my most reliable plne all last year. later
