pc2209, I appreciate your replies to help with this plane. You have nailed it as for the use of the rudder on turns. I do use the rudder for coordinated turns sometimes to keep the plane relatively...

Thanks for the reply. It seems that the major issue here is with the alignment of the wheel pants and use of rudder for turns. I have 14 RC models in all types of configurations (Extra 260 to...

Condor, you are the first person who has fessed up and agreed that this plane flies like no other plane out there. The 3-rudder explanation is probably "spot on" with respect to the reason she flies...

The first link is for a guy who "says" he will setup this 20cc plane to fly on a 4S battery power system to keep it light. Well, if you read the entire thread, he never flew it ! Just words. The...

Retired R3

Retired my R3 after numerous attempts to correct its unorthodox flight characteristics. Just flew like a plane possessed! In other words - flew like a mad dog with a disease. Too bad, its such a...

I have seen a few other models that appear to have a larger vertical stabilizer. It may help with the yaw issues on the smaller 20c version that we have.

Bob, I have the 20CC R3 but mine is electric powered. That should not affect the flight characteristics on take off, in the air or landing since the CG should be the same. You can see a boat load...
