Default Tip Stalls....

Unlike the WM Zero ARF, the Kyosho Zero ARF lands slow and has no tendency to tip stall. I landed her deadstick a couple of times, and she came down as smooth as silk. I double checked the wing, and sure enough, the wing has around 1.5° of washout at the tips. It is nice to have wing washout on a warbird. On the contrary, my gray VQ Zero has no wing washout, and it lands fast like the WM Zero. If I come in too slow, the left wing would drop. I learned that out the hard way three feet above the runway one day.
