cougar 429 and all fliers,

Just remember guys that there is mass in our models and inertia.

Many maneuvers initiated also have to be teminated by contolling just as we initiate the maneuver.

If you use ailerons to establsh a banked attitude then you need opposite ailerons to stop the roll at the desired angle of bank.

Just neuralizing the control does not stop the bank. You are likely to over-roll and result in a nearly vertical bank and a great loss of altitude in the turn and then have to climb back up.

This kind of thing also applies to many maneuvers. Try to practice "smooth flying". Assure that the model is well balanced laterally as well as longitudinally. This applies to dynamic as well as static conditions. Understand the effect of CG placement and the effects of downtrust and side trust in terms of how you wish your model to perform.

If all you want is tear holes in the sky than none of this may be necessary. Just install an engine/motor that has lots more trust than the weight of the model and enjoy.

The important thing is to enjoy the hobby in your own way.

Have fun.
