Default RE: BRIO Construction by the numbers

Thanks for the question- I'm using 8 degrees up and down on low rate, 11 degrees on snap rate, and about 14 degrees on spin rate elevator. I"ve come full circleover the last 5 years- low rates as much as possible with dual rates, to one rate (high rates and lots of expo), now I'm back to low rates normal flying as much as possible with high rates for snap (aileron) and much more for spin. Chip told Joseph about bouncing the stick. Going too far past center at the NATS then moving the aileron back to correct. They take two points off for that. Joseph also taught me about pushing sooner on the start of the P09 Cuban 8 in a strong downwind, and always for that matter... and of course he pointed out my snap on the 45 was early. And I did not believe him until Chris Moon confirmed this as Joe walked away. Eat crow, or at least animal crackers... I'll just hand the Tx over to this 9 yr old, but he wants Chip's Passport, or at least an Angel .50 if he does not get to fly the Brio again this year.

Regards,
Don
