Really nice plane! I never really got any good at CL. I crashed & trashed so many airplanes.....I could never get past a simple inside loop. Finally gave up. I was young and broke and just couldn't afford to throw my $ away like that. Sad part is I didn't realize how repairable they were. I had heard some pretty experienced contest types repeatedly saying how once a plane was repaired it was just too heavy to be much good. I was an inexperienced teenager who took the whole thing out of context and really had no frame of reference so I was throwing away perfectly repairable planes and building new ones. Stupid, eh? Now that I am 60 years old I am trying my hand at RC and I find it easier than CL. Probably because I got a simulator and joined a good club.
