I've just started a new build thread on RCGroups: www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=755944It's a 1.6M Balsa own design for the light wind days, which is every time I go to the slope these last few weeks  . Should be lots of fun at places like Brandenburg and Bald Knob with nice cooshy LZs.  |

A nice "real" plane is a delightful thing. They do have another requirement though... LANDING.  EDIT: and some thing else I remember doing... taking cyno (superglue) to the field! |

Yeah, balsa will be good for my local sites thanks to nice soft grass to land in, should be a bit more rewarding to fly a plane that you must actually "land" . Compare that to today's DSing, I "landed" once but I "stopped flying" maybe a dozen times ;D. |
