There are many more hobbies/sports that are more expensive than this one,
compared to some of my previous interests I find this one quite affordable.

Thanks to all that have suggested Clark-Y. I should have elaborated in my
original post. I'd like to stay away from flat bottom airfoils. I need to
fly this in heavy wind. That and I need to somewhat match the shape on the
fuse mount.

I dont get it..the Hobie Hawk is one of the worst flying planes ever
designed. The Windfree from that same age blows it away.

Guys,
If you're upset about spending $800-$1200 plus radio on a molded ship
to fly a couple of seasons of TD with, try spending $300-$400 on a
DLG that will only live a few contests if you're lucky (ONE if you
fly golf at the nats.) Then take into account the fact that you'll
spend a full
I agree, fly the plane first, but I had very few choices- pull up and fly
over my head into the line of waiting pilots; pull up and turn to my right
into the winches/launching planes; turn to my left and fly into a couple of
large debri/dumpsters and wreck my plane, or just dump the plane into

Which in his case, 1 BTU = $1,000.
Subtract one zero for my personal BTU budget :-)

Because you have flaps I think many foils would work *almost* sufficiently.
Although, I've got big ailerons and flaps on a gas plane and even CROW won't
slow the plane enough to accomplish quite what you're looking for.
Generally speaking, I like the S3016 foil. Good all around performance and

I have a brand spanking new in box Encore DLG from Maple Leaf that,
unfortunately, I will not be able to assemble. For sale for $370 and
shipping. Save a few bucks and some time waiting!
I also have a Sage DS 2 990 9' 9wt Graphite for $175. Save a *lot* of
bucks and waste a *lot* of time.
Handcatching DLG is so much nicer!
I'm hooked.

Sorry JR, It wasn't me who had the damage. I fly RES and enjoy doing so at
Visalia. There was another incident where a flyer was tightening up the
winch line and just as he was to let go, the line snapped. He fell
backwards after his knee gave oout and twisted. Sorry to say, he fell
backward
yeah... I think I got shot down like 5 times on
landing approach, right before I was supposed to the
