Maiden Disappointment

Yesterday, Monday, I tried out the new Flanker slope soarer. After rain for a week it was long overdue for its maiden - but what a disappointment!! Due to (ahem) a design fault it would enter a flat spin and then simply tumble down the ground in most alarming fashion. Yikes! What had I got wrong?

After consultation with Ralph, he suggested moving the tail fins rearward and/or enlarging them.... so this is what it looks like now.



Spot the difference! Doesn't look much like an Su27 Flanker anymore probably looks more like an F18 but will take it out for another try and see what happens. Fingers crossed :-)
