Something from Don Szczur

Setup for Funtana aerobatics plane that may be helpful to several club members. There is information regarding the proper rudder trim to assist with loops. If you have just a little too much elevator a wing will drop off. It's not the radio, just a wing stalling. Proper rudder trim and elevator throw for low rate prevents that. The link below explains in detail.
