Default RE: Balsa USA Phaeton ll kit

A friend has one with a Saito 80 at 500' elevation. It is a dart even at half throttle. He really likes the plane except he has to fly another plane first to build up his nerve.

He relates flying it to the Andrews Aeromaster in characteristics. The Aeromaster is a standard of comparison for sport bipes. The Pheaton has a lower parts count and is much easier to build than the Aeromaster.
