I was just looking for someone that had some experience with the Hanger 9 Sopwith. I have had mine for probably a year. I've been flying R/C for almost 30 years and of the dozens and dozens of planes I have owned, I have never had one that I couldn't fly. That is until I got the Sopwith. Today I crashed mine for the fourth and final time. It's repairable, but I just don't ever want to see it again. It's a beautiful plane and was one of my favorites to "LOOK AT". Every time I have tried to fly it, It jumps off the ground and tip stalls to the right. The CG is right where the factory says it should be. I even made it a little nose heavy. I have an OS 61 2cy for power. I have a Futaba 9C radio and Futaba heavy duty BB servos. The radio range checks fine and the pack cycles to its rated MAH. I am totally puzzled. If there is anyone out there that wants to comiserate with me or who has some info on this problem, drop me a line.
