What are the best windy day electrics?
AEAJR,
As a general rule, the higher the wing loading, the better the plane "handles the wind". It's more important that the top forward speed of your plane is at least equal to the highest wind speed you will be flying in.
Park flyers=0 to 10 mph max
Zagi or similar =0 to well, you might lose the plane before you launch it!
I have taken a plane (glow .40) out and after a helper and, I fired it up, could take off, fly, loop, roll, ect., and land without any forward progress. NOT RECOMMENDED, unless you are an adrenaline junkie.
Bottom line, though is that an airplane can not "tell" it's flying in wind or calm, only the "relative wind", or airspeed it is flying at.
Think powered boat in the middle of a swift current in a river.
