Default RE: SIG Four Star vs Phoenix Dolphin

The Dolphin is a well built model IMHO. prehinged ailerons,elevators and rudder,decent hardware.

lands kind of like a trainer,harder to take off (tail dragger)

Dad and I are working on our second one(first one got eat by a tree) on this one I cut the covering away on the bottom and instaled servos in both wings so we could use the flaperons,it also helps on the roll rate.

on both, the torque rods would bind against the fuse. wing bolt plate. after I instaled the servos in the wing I cliped the torque rods flush with the wing

maybe I was trying to get to much throw?

all in all it is a verry good second plane.

the landing gear holds up pretty good (as good as the ones on my H9 arrow),I had to remove and rebend em once on the first one, haven't had to rebend the second ones yet. (I have seen aluminum ones have to be rebent too)
