Default WM Cap 232 spins..

Hi, I haven't tried spins on the World Models Cap 232 46 size plane yet. I tried a few flights and am getting used to the "look" of the plane in the air. It was also very windy during the test flights so was being very cautious. Does any one know if the plane stops spinning when you let go of the sticks?? [8D]

I was flying mine last night in perfect weather,

To answer your question, yes , it stops spinning when you release the sticks.

One big BUT, make sure you have enough airspeed and altitude when you go to pull out. It is a CAP , which means SNAP if you pull too hard and stall a wing. It will roll the other way real quick.

I feel more comfortable with a sportester when pulling out close to the ground.

Mine has a 46AX and weighs 5.25 lbs. I tried 6 different props, 10-7 APC seems to give it the mid range speed/mid- throttle I'm looking for.

Good luck

Thankx for the info splatt. I have the same engine so will pick up a 10-7 APC to try. All I had to try the plane with was an MAS 11-5 which works ok but could be better.[8D]
