Default RE: GP GEE BEE

I have a saito 150 in mine , I didnt cut any corners building , I used lots of micro ballons and epoxy beffing up things . it has more than enough power and the CG came out great . did not have to add any weight at all , I have 4 flights on mine now . I hate to do anything more to it because I feel like I am working on it for nothing , every flight ends up with a control crash for landing , In my flying of 28 year I have never flown something like it . when I take off I think , lets have the best of it in the air because landing is going to be ugly . it flys very light and smooth . when on aproch it like to ballon up on its own than its a porpus fight to get it on the ground , if it ballons its better to power up and try again . I have the stock gear on it and from what I read is my main issue but I hate to put any more money and work into a plane that I crash every time I fly it .its to the point that the gear blocks are loose . If it works for you great ! but I think that I am just going to haul mine around in the trailer to talk about .
