Hey all...I hope you are enjoying the Holiday. With my Conquest, Odyssey and SLV well flown.....I am looking to move onto my next build. Looking to build the Estes Shuttle. I am looking forward to this one.
My question is has anyone ever had the glider actually glide well with nothing done to it other than basic trim? I dont mean to offend the glider/plane folks nor the designer of the kit. But if the glider simply dives to the ground for me to repair each time....I may just keep the whole unit together and launch and recover as a single unit. I dont have an interest in endlessly trying to get it to glide. I just wanted to ask if it really glides when built per the instructions...anyone who has seen it glide when built stock?
Thanks for your input and time
Andrew
