Re: [RCSE] Best 2 Meter for NATS
I've flown an Aegea 2M the past few Nats. Succeeded in getting wood with a 0 flight. Last year was nice since the winch direction was set up with relatively short lines. Also, got to fly a 9303 2.4 this year. The model needs it for the zoom. It's really light and the maneuver at the top of the launch is very, very quick. So the faster response time definitely helped since I don't fly it that often. Model weighed in around 23 oz. HLG on steroids. Everyone else, please continue flying Ducks.

Re: [RCSE] Best 2 Meter for NATS
Not really. Mike Lachowski was handing us at beating for a while at the Nats last year with his Aegea, a pretty new design. The Organic has nowhere near the wing area of a Duck, and still launches fine. Flying 2M at the Nats, or anywhere, is far more about decision making than ultimate launch height. Not that it doesn't help, but time and again at the Nats you'll see the high guy get beat by a bad turn or bad decision off launch.

[RCSE] Best 2 meter for NATS
OK here we go, what is the best 2 meter for the NATS??? I know you guys will say the Duck, but you can't get one. In the past my super light, thin cord home brew(26oz)did not do very well. I had my :censored: kicked on launch do to 300 winch line. I was thinking something with more cord and mass will do better. -- eschlitzkus eschlitzkus's Profile: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/member.php?u=76533 View this thread: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=791525 RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
