Hmmm. Doesn't sound like a good second plane then. Which is neither good nor bad for the Tango. I had a Kangke SK-50 that could probably have been a good second plane but it landed a bit hot as I had it propped with an 11X6. With an 11X5 and a .46 to .50 engine it was a splendid flier; but it could still bite you if you weren't on top of it. His .65LA would not be suitable.
I guess then I'd have to go with a .60 size Big Stik converted to a tail-dragger.
I don't know.. The Tango is actually Greg's son's plane. Jackson is about 9 or 10, and Greg taught him to fly on the Tango. As wild as it can be in the air. It seemed to come down to earth pretty stable. Greg must have dual rates configured in. High rates when it's flying like an epileptic swallow, and low rates when Jackson's flying it like a sleeping buzzard.
