Phil Winks Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Hi all strange place to find me this but for some time now I've had a much troubled (mostly by my er over enthusiasm) west wings fournier rf4 powered glider which now flies like a dream from flat field. boredem and neck ache is all that brings it down any way my question is will soonish be visiting parts of the cornish and welsh coast and I'm considering taking it along to try sloping with it. so would this be a good idea and what would be a max wind speed it would be comfortable with Stats are 60" span auw approx 20ozscheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Winks Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 Hmm no responses I'm guessing no one's tried flying this one off a hill before. Ahh well back to the intrepid adventurer spirit that arguably lies dormant in every aeromodeller. I'll prob have to just chuck and see lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
