Thanks, and you're welcome..........

Keep in mind that our models will fly with some really horrendous rigging, balance, alignments, and such. It's truly amazing how awful some models are that fly "perfectly" in their owner's eyes. And there usually is really no way to prove any difference in performance between one model and the other. A bunch of our smaller biplanes like the Skybolt and WM's Ultimate and such prove it every day. Their owners are happy as flies on a pig's lips with the models and rigging. And I'm almost that happy with mine. (pig's lips ain't my preference)

There is a guy at one field I fly at with a Skybolt rigged by the mfg's book. He is positive that our two Skybolts fly the same, neither better than the other. He also believes you have to watch out or "Skybolts" will snap out of some maneuvers and landings are just a bit touchy. I don't. Could be the aileron rigging or better trimming. We'll never know for sure.
