Default RE: Help! - Exponential Controls

Well if you just have to go it alone do a couple of favors for yourself. toss the glider into the wind a couple of times just to get a level flight for a few feet for trim setting motor off. make sure it balances wingtip to wing tip as well as nose to tail.with the trims set try the same kind of launch with power on ...wings level pitch it straight out or at 3 o'clock maybe SLIGHTLY up. tiny control stick movements. establish level flight or slight climb under power DON"T turn yet ...slow it down until it starts to sink add power until it stops sinking now (if you can still see it) make your first turn with a very small stick input. gliders like trainers are set for level flight at a specific throttle setting, add power it should climb etc. good luck
