RE: Fairings at the wing root
The SE is nothing more than a cobbled up SIG FAZER. Uses the same wing, with no sweep where the FAZER has a straight trailing edge with leading edge sweep.
I guess the modifiers couldn't finger out how to put the wing joining tube in the FAZER wing.
I built up the kit, sweeping the wing ala FAZER, and built a profile fuselage version at the same time.
Both flew fine.
The roll rate on an SE is awesome!
Make absolutely positive the aft wing anti-rotation dowel is GLUED in place!
One of the SEs at the field was landed with extreme difficulty.... "interference" was blamed. when I pointed out to the owner and the flier that the right wing was not held by the dowel, and with aileron deflection became a very LARGE wingeron! Which of course would roll the plane -opposite- the commanded direction.
Seems the builder missed the instruction to glue that dowel in place. And it vibrated out of the right wing into the fuselage, with most of it in the left wing.
