Hi - The only issue I've had with the landings is the flaps can act like speed brakes, so if you get too slow it noses up very quickly. Everyone tells me I tend to land a little faster than most other people so wing dips don't happen for me with any of my models but it is pretty common on most swept wing formats. The Cougar tends to get a little 'fish tail' wobbly coming out of a turn and i first though this to be a problem but as I don't use gyro's the effects are natural and it only lasts for a couple of seconds and self corrects. This model is a real joy to fly.
Brilliant landing! Love, love, love this plane!
Yahoo, what a little ball terra
Nice flight .thinking about buying this kit . Most videos i see alot of wing dipping on landings is that normal for this bird ? Cheers
