Hi David, thats a great insight into the effects of fuselage length, curled up wing tips and other stability issues, ive just learned a heck of alot in a very short time, thanks for that.

thanks for posting. good work. here are some things to consider. at 5:31, the planform of this model is that of a self-launching glider; note the slightly excessive distance between the elevator and main wing. this can result in unpredictable responses to control inputs, when a model is flown under power, continuously. this increases weight, aft, and adversely affects the dom of the model. confirm that cg is located at 30 percent of chord; for a normal flying experience. weight at the tail Could be reduced, if the height of the vert-stab was reduced, by about one inch. the curldup wingtips could be Removed. why. at all times, they increase yaw-axis stability. so, responses to yaw axis control inputs are 'conflicted'. cheers googletranslate

I've just purchased an A600 before I knew how brittle the foam is. As a very new plane pilot I can see this video being of some use very quickly! Thanks & subbed. ;-)

Love the accent by the way. Takes me back to holidays in Waking Ned Devine country. ;-) Cheers from Aus.
