Well, I flew again indoors this time. The mini fogey had similar flight issues so that rules out the wind. The overall high weight called for way too high of a stall speed for my taste so I grounded it and pulled out the extra light build version...
Omg! What a differance!
This guy performed amasingly! It was sketchy untill I got it trimed out then it came to life. Super slow stall speed, I could lean back on the tiny little elevator to full throw and get a nice little flair/ high angle and slow it down to a walking speed. Power was good till I touched the gound and my crappy hobby king imatation gws prop cracked and went out of balance. They are all used up now, gladly...
All in all a good flying plane but I noticed what someone had mentioned earlier about the old fogey having a preferred speed to be true. Ill see if I can get a video up...
