2 degs or thereabouts ;) Omitted in the earlier text. If the grass dries out by later this Friday afternoon I will give it another test hand launch.

Glad it's got some. Let's hope that's enough?

Little Mustang now completed. Blinding Sun, light breeze, Oh Well give it another go. Video snapshots not too brilliant - she is not good with tech. Ouch! :lol:

Just a gentle throw before camera was running and it covered the length of the grass easily, wings level. Camera running and yes it does need some sort of trim tab on the stabiliser for down trim, climbs too steep Any ideas? I had thought of some bendy plastic.

Shame that model flying has descended to this elementary level.......;)

Looks promising Phil. Not only does a "chuckie" get you outdoors, it excercises the arm you use to lift pints. Vital to keep that in trim for the end of lockdown.
