That is awesome - I have you all on my Favorites, and I make it a habit to
check the site about ever 2 weeks. I'll probably step that up.
Much luck, I know there's a few guys here in the midwest that would like to
put a Sagitta on the board.

These guys bought the kits, tooling, etc - not in production yet, as far as
I can tell. I'm hoping that they get something out soon, would love to do
another one.
Good luck,
Brent

The original Sagitta 900 instructions recommend that the rudder should
deflect 1 1/2 each way and the stab should have a total throw of 3/4
measured at the leading edge. The center of gravity is recommended to be 3
5/8 back from the leading edge, and not more than 3 3/4 from the leading
edge.
Jack. . . go to File 8 in the Genie pages as http://genie.rchomepage.com/.
This discusses how to proceed with a new thermal ship to find balance, tow
hook position, throws, etc.

Hmm... you could try...
Thicker stabs help a bit... some used slightly smaller lifting or
cambered stabs. Eliminate the hardwood carrier that holds the brass
wing tube in place. Just leave the bay open and use a mix of epoxy
and milled glass. That was the cause of death for one of my 900s.
Just got the short kit from DCH for the Sagitta 900. Are there any
tips/improvements for this sailplane??
Thanks --- Jack Dubich
Yes, The bearing loads on the tube for the wire joiner of the flying stab
are more than the surrounding wood will take. Eventually the stab will start
to wobble
Hi David,
The Sagitta 900 should weigh about 58 oz. as near as I can remember.
The CG is best 5/8" behind the CG on the plans unless this has been
corrected on later additions.
I have built 7 900's and 7 600's but haven't even looked at one for several
years. Hope this helps some.
Regards, Art
