It’s a fantastic beginning design. Bob Kane flew one in Masters for an entire season somewhat out of necessity, but quite competently. The only issue with the higher classes was that it took it’s toll on a 5s5000 pack to fly the entire sequence if set up for the required power. But assuming most will likely fly it in the lower classes, it was the perfect size. Any smaller and you will start to lose the feel of a slower 2m plane that it emulates so well.<br><br><br>Mark Atwood<br>Paragon Consulting, Inc. | President<br>5885 Landerbrook Drive Suite 130, Cleveland Ohio, 44124<br>Direct: 440.229.2502 | Fax: 440.684.3102<br>www.paragon-inc.com<<a href="http://www.paragon-inc.com/" target="_blank">http://www.paragon-inc.com/</a>><br><br><br>[cid:<a href="mailto:image001.png@01CE481F.E6A56C70">image001.png@01CE481F.E6A56C70</a>]<br><br>On Feb 5, 2014, at 5:27 PM, Peter Vogel <<a href="mailto:vogel.peter@gmail.com">vogel.peter@gmail.com</a><mailto:<a href="mailto:vogel.peter@gmail.com">vogel.peter@gmail.com</a>>> wrote:<br><br>As I said earlier, it's the perfect "gateway" drug.
