I want to go fly my alpha this winter, i installed a set of skis and i am allmost all ready to go try it. I was thinking about the cold that could maybe affect the hinges for surfaces movement... is it dangerous to brake or snap because it could be too cold?
Also, since the last time i flew my plane was summer time, will i have to ajust the carburator setting due to the change of weather? Is there a good tread somewhere here to help setting up needle valve and carburator?
Thanks

Marcus028... to put it simply...if it isn't raining, winds aren't over 20 mph, visibility isn't less than a mile, or the snow is coming down like a blanket You can fly that play. It has been in the low 30s here and we are flying here in Ohio. look at it this way. There are only a few of us out at the field when winter gets here. So we get more flying time.
You can't beat that can you?
