I noticed on the second trip to the field with mine last night that my wing dowels are loose as well, and I also found one helluva twist in my rudder! LOL So I flew it anyways seeing I was already out there, as I mentioned in a previous post I have the "drop-a-wing" issue while trying to harrier as well, and pulling out of some vertical stuff when going downwind but can to a popup just fine most of the time. I am eager to see how this flies with a straight rudder (shrunk the twist out with the covering no problem) and tighter wing. One thing I do have to say is this plane does the most beautiful inverted flat spins for a .40 sized airplane!! I can actually stop it in the air flat spinning not losing altitude and Im sure once I get used to it should be able to climb inverted while flat spinning
Good thread going here about some the issues with this plane and everybodies ideas and methods of solving them.
