Re: Climbing issues
If retrimming still doesn't work, I recommend using thicker rubber of the same weight as previous motors, which will preserve CG and provide more power for your flight.

Re: Wright Stuff C
Would it be a good idea to provide some downthrust to compensate for the unbalanced high lift of the biplane? I remember last year we had some accidentally due to a break in the front hook attachment which we discovered later. Ascent went smoothly if launched at an angle but the descent was faster s...

Re: Wright Stuff C
Just clarifying, to reverse the turn direction of the plane, one would have to reverse the tilt and warp of the front wing and rear stabilizer as well as change the direction of the rudder? If so, it doesn't seem like carbon fiber wings would work well for something like this. Reversing the tilt an...

Re: Wright Stuff C
Great Job to everyone! I was wondering if everyone in the top 10 could post a picture of their plane onto 2019 best of nationals page. Next year's specs will be different and hopefully, there will be an interesting bonus so the plane will have a different design.
