Default RE: Seagull Models

 I have the 260 .  The ARF looks nice . I had a problem with the laterail balance ,  Needed 2.1/4 oz of wieght in the left wing to balance. Called Horizon and they told me to try flying it without the weight first , to see how it handled. It would drop the right wing very easily , very hard to land it that way. 
 I added the 2.1/4 oz. of lead to the right wing tip and made it a tad nose heavy and still had the problem with the right wing dropping at slower speeds.. I`ve talked with several others that have this plane and same issues I`m having with the right wing stall, but not the weight issue. The plane handles very  poorly. Very nice ARF, just does`nt handle very well.
 I have the Seagull 540 Edge V2 also , much, much better handling plane. I would recommend it , over the 260.
