Based on this, I would be hesitant to recommend an HLG. Reason being that "medium" lift on the typical California hills I've flown at can be pretty darn good...not exactly ideal for an HLG, especially if you want good, fast performance in this type of wind. Of course, it depends on the definition of "medium." ____________________________________________________________________________ Brett Jaffee: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brett's Slope and Power Home Page: http://home.earthlink.net/~jaffee OnTheWay Quake 3 server utility: http://www.planetquake.com/ontheway The Unoffical Extra 300 Home Page: http://bjaffee.tripod.com/extra300/ ____________________________________________________________________________ RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
