Default RE: Showtime 50 Problem


ORIGINAL: chuck993

the problems is not the showtime, most non-trainer non-high wing airplanes will tip stall at some point, the droops are for a trainer airplane to help the student learn how to fly and eventually, they take the droops off once the student is more proficient in landing and stalls...some food for thought...
I realize and accept that, but my Showtime was tip stalling too soon in my opinion, because the plane is moving at a speed where I know the wings aren't stalled, and my elevator inputs are fairly gentle considering the type of flying this plane was designed to do. The droops don't hamper aerobatic ability, so I'm gonna keep 'em.
