Default RE: KMP Hurricane - maiden


ORIGINAL: BOLTMAN

Hi Dave,

When setting up my 72'' KMP / ESM / YT International Hurricane I e-mailed the designer of this model ( Ian Redshaw in the UK ) regarding the suggested throws. He recommended pretty large throws with plenty of expo with the reason being that the elevator throw may be required in the landing phase. I too am not a big fan of lots of expo on elevator though I do use plenty on aileron and rudder. I test flew per Ian's suggestion but did end up reducing both throw and expo on elevator once I was familiar with what was required.

Cheers
