Title: Picture test
Post by: Willis Swindell on February 10, 2006, 05:55:05 PM

Just a test to see if I could post a picture. The picture is a cardinal that I cut the flaps 9 inches to help it turn.

This is my third Cardinal, To me all mine seems to want to hesitate before they turned. On my first cardinal I made a larger stab and elevator which worked OK. The second one I put more elevator throw then the flaps That worked OK but I always thought the flaps were to large. My third one was an ARF and I didn’t like the covering so I striped off the old covering and monokoted and cut  9 inches off  the flaps. FOR ME the plane turns quicker in the turns. It doesn't turn any tighter just quicker.
