RE: Seagull Decathlon ARTF - Control Throws Question...
I wouldn't consider it a second plane at all, more of a 3d, or 4th type plane. The plane needs to be treated different to remain controllable on the ground and a fast light touch on the thumbs while it is in the air. It has a quirk that I have never seen on another plane. If allowed to bleed off speed on landing there is a point where the ailerons will suddenly become ineffective at which point you will have to either speed up or switch to the rudder!! The plane doesn't stall at this point either but appears to fly very stable. It might be different if I hadn't corrected the lateral balance of the plane before flying. [8D]
