Jason, The EMS Kit that John is referring to is a very nice and complete kit. I just recently built an EMS ASW27 (basically same plane but with flaps) for Larry Scaramella. The plane is tight to get radio gear but once it is figured out where it all goes it is a snap (thanks Sean). It comes wi

Jason, To be sure the Schueller is a primo ship but large, and actually a floater, thermal ship in my experience. if you want a small ship, EMS makes a small 2.5 meter asw 24 in exact scale, Even offers an up and go. http://www.ems-modell.de/h/asw27_25_eng.html Icare also has a 5 meter Nimbus, ve

I've been thinking of ways to improve the roll response on a Graupner Cirrus (tiny ailerons), and I was wondering if anyone knew of reasons that I should NOT extend the ailerons. I figured that I could simply extend them by mounting rigid plastic on them (perhaps extending them by 100%). Wou
