Handles, again

[Tim Wescott]

Need some advice with all this info so which is a good allround handle for that's been away from sport for years.

For sport or stunt I'd say get a handle from Brodak.

If you really want to get serious, get one handle per plane and keep handle and lines together in a bag or sandwich box.  That way you always fly with the same adjustments.

I agree with Tim.  For Sport flying, an adjustable handle that you can setr for each plane as you fly it will be fine.

For my Competition planes I keep the handle and lines carefully packed in a zip lock bag.  When that plane is retired I make up another set of lines for the next one and do the same.

Which one is good the adjustable cable or hard point   

Thanks for help

Finally got to try out my new hard point handle from Carl.  Flew my Vector 40 which always needed a good yank with the cable handle to turn the corner.  Not the case with the hard point handle.  Just a nice little pop of the wrist and bang 90 degree corner and no bobbles on the bottoms.  It flew like it was on rails, very impressed so far.

Glad it's working out for you, Jared.

For what purpose?

For competition flying, I would strongly advise you to use a hard point handle.  Doug Moon notwithstanding.  I would advise you even more strongly to try both hard point and cable, and make your own decision -- but I gave away my last cable handle after about a year of flying and haven't looked back, so it's not like I'd be taking my own advise.
