RE: Black Magic VF3 Build Thread
Why in the world would you put a canalyzer on a V3. The canalyzer fixed deficiencies that this plane doesnt have. Chip flew it last week and really liked the plane and even said it was as close to his Passports as he has flown. The plane will comfortably fly the current F patterns as well as the newer ones. The only thing that is going to do is hinder the performance. The original canalyzer was installed on CPLR's planes because the veritcal fin was too small and he had to overcome some serious coupling problems. When a plane is designed correctly, canalyzers do nothing but harm. It worked on a Brio for the same reasons.
Unless you find a need to install a handle on top to carry the plane, it is just a waste of time and really makes the plane look funny.
