Hi Dick,
it seems we have had this aurgument together about 10 years ago
Nat told Me the same thing about 20 years ago.
I think you need to wait for the video
yeah!,you can make it fly with a 1/4 deg of inc.<in the big wing up front> as you put it , But ,OH! No!
I can`t do a knife edge loop without tons of mixing or an upline snap and stay on line,
Oh Yeah and my left rudder knife edge wanders all over the place
come to think of it so does my upline and the down lines
in the world of FAI these things have to be perfect or ,you give up points
only a few guys in the US can make it look" Good" with that set up ,Brett ,Jason, Chip
don`t forget ,,I owned one of your TIPO`S [&o]
it`s where I started this Effort 20years ago
I tell you what ,,,go try my method , give it an Honest effort and, report back to the list, then poo! poo! it if you can,
everybody I have helped has had solid results. with a very skepticle reaction at first, you might even be able to come off of your expo a little.
I already used your method ,,,it don`t work, so I developed mine
Sorry Dick, it`s a different Era !
may-be you would be more help teaching me how to spell[8D] ,,no that s a loosing battle LOL!

Well I could not make sense out of that posting but you shift things around however you like - it's your model
The "perfect pattern plane" is a moving target -and 90% a subjective thing -
You don't like my approach?
Your choice -
What is a skepticle? A deep bowl where you store ideas you don't accept?
