Suggestions for a beginner

[only1bobert]

Must have been a flaw in my wing. I tried a 4s yesterday in it wow on the straightaway, what a burst of speed at full throttle. I built another wing can't wait to get out and try some coordinated turns. I've been practicing my right turns as these are my weak side. I was in my second tight loop in a row and it snapped. I'm also practicing bigger planes with my simple cub, all the tips here have helped so much.

On the other hand don't use the f pack on full throttle you will snap a wing.

I did that today with my TT and F pack motor and didn't snap a wing I did get full vertical b/c of it though, my videos later on this thread.

Here's an example of why you use packing tape on your power pod. Does anyone have suggestions on these powerpods as they take the brunt of the impact? I decided to not use packing tape to see what would happen, this was a simple landing no impact.

P.S. Wife bought me a gopro be uploading video soon of this mornings flight YAY!
