Default A new model is born - the Look@Me -

They are pushed the same way of a monoplane when into a constant wind drift.
BUT, there are designs that are less disturbed by wind GUSTS (read: they don't roll, push or pull, and correct the flight direction automatically -more or less-)
SO, in a CONSTANT WIND, there is no difference between designs (apart some that are easier to mask/straighten the drift BY PILOT INPUT)
For the wind GUSTS, the model plays an important role.

Of course, this is a general behavior, that may have his own ecceptions.

(I want to let you know that I'm not a top pilot at all. All the previous statement comes from my knowledge collected during my time spent into the hobby)
