Wow that was some awesome flying! That video was a great showcase of your design's capabilities. Most of us like to fly with the landing gear on the bottom, but to each his own, I guess!

The STOL take-off's from the high grass, the immaculate landings. Yep. You did it right.

Which wing is better for 3D?

 

[Grifflyer]

[Grifflyer]

Yeah that should work, I'd recommend removing a lot of the internal paper to save weight

I feel that politics should be kept off the forums personally. That being said, I agree with Griffy
