I wish I'd had a video camera at the field today and gotten some footage of a big Goldberg Decathalon. People could see just how maneuverable the design really is. I've also seen a couple stall and crash on people.


gaRCfield: keep in mind that RC can sometimes be a little like golf. Your "game" can go south now and then. Just keep working at it and it always comes back. I'd fly the wings of your Decathlon and Dolphin both. If they start feeling like a trainer, that means you've progressed. A really good pilot is one that takes a real "handful" plane and flys it so smooth, precise and easy that it looks like he's flying a trainer.
