SIG Twister

[John Harold]

My son took some video of my SIG Twister, I was just testing out a new uniflow tank I'd made and was just chucking the model around a bit. The old Fox.36 doesn't needle too well with the std. NVA, I'll change it for an OS or Super Tigre NVA this week. The tank worked fine. Here's a link to the Youtube footage. I love this hobby!!!

Looks like that Fox did a fine job hauling your Twister. Looks like you had a good day for flying, with lots of cloud cover. And by looking at your shirt and shorts, it must be a little warmer in your part of the world.

Dang! I hate cold weather!

The plane looked good to me in the video.   Wanted to get out to the field the last couple of weeks, but,  it is freezing or blowing.  Guess I will have to pull combat plane off the hook.  Have fun, DOC Holliday

Yes, the Fox.36 works very well on the SIG Twister, which is a great stunt trainer. Although I'm in my 60's, only first tried my hand at stunt a couple of years ago, when I came back to control line flying.
I'm putting an Akromaster together for my son to fly, he's starting C/L aged 25 Y.O.
Here in Sydney Australia we're coming into summer, when the weather gets a bit too warm sometimes.

Seemed to me like the NV setting problem might have been your hand blocking the uniflow vent from the prop blast. Hooking it to a remote vent on the other side of the fuselage (so it's away from the NV area) might be a possible cure. That aside, a ST or Randy Aero NV assy. will always be a big improvement. I'm not a fan of OS NV's, or anything with a clicker spring, actually.  Steve

I will take the heat over the cold any day.

Keep us frozen folks posted with warm sunny photos.
