Default Lanier Citabria ARF......

I just finished my Lanier Citabria ARF. It has a magnum 52 four stroke in it and JR equipment. I've been flyin trainers for about 1 1/2 years now and am pretty good at it. I had a hanger9 cub last spring, so building the Cita wasn't a problem. Unfortunately I had a little accident on my atv, leaving me with a broken wrist.....I sold the plane in hopes of getting another but...... Anyway, I am just wondering how good is this particular plane and how is it to fly?? I realize you have to use the rudder along with ailerons to turn and that it is an aerobatic plane. I have been practicing with my trainers on this so it shouldn't be much of a problem........... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I have not flown that particular model. If it flyes like other Citabrias its a blast. You dont have to use
rudder and aile to turn. Someone has led you astray on that. LATER DAVEO

lol......It was actually my hobby store owner that had told me that!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I figured it was true with all the guff I've been hearing about the cubs and other upperwinged craft. I would like to know more on this plane. Like take offs, landings and just straight out handling. Hopefully it's not much different from the trainers then, other than the diehedrial. Anyway, thanks alot on the extra confidence, and if anyone could....I'm gettin the itch to fly her, so anything will help at this time........[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
