I built one a few years ago and was very satisfied. Things I liked: It's a nice plane - builds easily, all the parts fit and the wood selection is good. It has more wing area than the average 2 meter, so it's easier to see, and floats well. The thin section allows for good penetration as well.
Things I didn't like: The spoilers - the single servo arrangement did not work well for me. If I were building another, I'd use a microservo for each spoiler with a direct linkage. I built the conventional tail, because I've had trouble getting RES V-tail planes to turn well in the past. The kit has enought wood for either version. > > From: "Brian Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2005/01/27 Thu AM 10:55:34 EST > To: <[email protected]> > Subject: [RCSE] Chrysalis 2 Meter > > A friend who has been out of soaring for a few years is looking around at > Kits to build..Ask me about the Chrysalis 2 M.
