Default RE: AIRTRONICS CUMIC PLUS ADVICE


ORIGINAL: knowhereman

I looked at the specs for the Cumic and the Cumic plus and they have the same Fuselage length 49 inches and 17 inches difference in wingspan. Seems a little strange, if it was a built up fuse then maybe I could extend it.
It has more to do with the wing chord than the wing span.

What are your thoughts on the counter balanced Rudder? I have seen on here people saying lose it and go for conventional.
lose it and go for conventional It really improves the handling, the launch is much straighter without the counterbalance on all the Airtronics sailplanes, it was a bad idea.
