<div>Been to many contests with Frak.. He is critical of his setups for sure.. </div> <div>He flew the Lancaster contest with a Eflite Diamante in Masters last month and won. WIth a 25 sized plane. lol.. He hasn't been around for awhile. Not sure if I'll see him at any contests.. </div> <div> </div> <div>Chris<BR><BR><B><I>Doug Cronkhite <seefo@san.rr.com></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Actually.. if you ever get to a contest with Tony Frakowiak, you'll find <BR>he's more than willing to assist with setup problems when he has time. <BR>Tony is EXTREMELY critical of setup and his assistance is worth points <BR>in the air certain.<BR><BR>-Doug<BR><BR><BR>krishlan fitzsimmons wrote:<BR>> I completely agree with this Lance.<BR>> <BR>> This is what baffles me with every setup..
