On a tapered planform, low wing Strega, they just might increase the tip stall a tapered wing often does naturally. Wing loading also affects things. Does that Strega already need a bit of extra speed landing to be comfortably safe? Does it stall out of harder looping maneuvers?
The real beauty of our hobby is that we can rig almost anything in our models with just an evening or two's work, and then go test at two mistakes high. And it greatly increases the fun we already have with those little suckers.
Are you going to have to rig something special on a Strega to get spoilerons? does it already have a setup for plain flaps? split flaps?
I think my main complaint is that my Strega just does not slow down as quickly as I would like when the engine is idling and am decenting into land.
It seems like if I am bringing in on a gentle decent then its speed is so fast that it is more willing to keep flying than actually land. To land it I kind of have to get it down a couple feet above the very begining of the runway and then hold it level for a 200 feet or so before it slows down enough to land and stay on the ground.
yes my Strega does stall out under hard looping when evelator is near max deflection, like near the top of a loop. It will also stall while doing a sharp turn if I ask for max elevator.
when is stalls under slow flight it does tend to tip-stall and drop a wing rather than just mush and drop the nose with wings level.
the Strega only has flaps or spoilers, but has individual servos for each aileron. I have a Futuba T7C programable tx. I would prefer to try softaware programming changes before really moding my aircraft.
