Question about setup for a Wild Hare 28%
#1
I have been wondering how you IMAC guys set up the control
throws on your Wild Hare 28% planes.
Do you use the suggested high and low rates in the manual?
If not what are your settings?
How long are your servo arms/control arms on the elevators,
ailerons, and rudder?
Thanks for the help.

Kelly,
I'm flying a wildhare extra special in sportsman this year. I've been playing with the setup a bunch. It's balanced so that it needs only a small amount of up inverted. I mixed the rudder to the ailerons and elevator for knife edge flight. I use just enough (about 22 % on my 9cap with the standard 1 inch hitec arms) elevator so that it doesn't snap and gives a nice round curve on my lay down humpty. To make it enter a spin I have to use high rates (about 60%). For 3d I use max throws. I played with the aileron and rudder throws until I got a confortable snap. In wind I need high rate rudder to allow for wind correction and hammer. In light wind the low rate is fine. Hope this helps. I don't have a way to measure degrees but it's probably best to set the rates for your flying style.

As for high rates, I used there number on rudder and aileron but I only used 35 degrees on elevator. This pilot is not going to be flying any 3d. ATV's are at 130% to get 35 degrees, I used 1" arms. I used 3/4" arms on the ailerons and the double arm(dubro) on the rudder pull pull.

Thank you for the help,
I flew the 28% Wild Hare Extra for the first time today and I think it
flies much nicer then my 28% Wild Hare Edge (R.I.P.).
I used all the equipment from the Edge in the Extra and the Extra
flat out flies better for me. I only flew it twice but on the first flight
i could tell I liked this plane better.

If you have to ask questions then your not ready for high performance planes. For those of you reading this ..Your a typical power jockey that likes to throw his money around to impress all the guys at the field.. You have no real understanding of airspeed just look at how you land,......not pretty...and your negative to any other type of flying bascially one of the jerks.. I belong to a large power club with 330 members in Texas i Know the type...you look down on my glider ,, then you all have the same idiot story about how you had a glider once...and it stayed up for 3 hours the first flight yeah right..then you said well i only used a motor to get it up there...what a joke thats not gliding ..you are liars and idiots LOL...by the way my Ninja glider does an inverted snap roll after launch as well as a rolling circle in a thermal...good luck Keith White
