@Alam: Just a humble effort to follow pilots like you dear  ;D Thanks a lot for the kind words. You are spot on about the surfaces, the ELE is the size of a 50cc or more  :giggle:

Sandyji, thanks a lot for your kind words  ;D I wish I could be as good as many who has already commented here.  :salute: to them all.

KE is fine

As far as hover is concerned, you need to get a litlle more vertical, in pure vertical flight lift=zero. so if Lift=Zero there will be no stall, but once you  are angled to the airflow with near full back elevator, she will wing drop (as she is doing in your video), this could be because of (a) Model being slightly nose heavy (b) stron head winds whereby in the vertical the model is drifting with the wind and you are wanting to stay in one position by dropping nose into the wind.

Yes ! as Sandy says, I am ever ready to learn, any pointers by anyone, i will be glad to learn.

Need to come to your place to fly, Sam, when is that going to happen ? god knows

(b) Strong head winds whereby in the vertical the model is drifting with the wind and you are wanting to stay in one position by dropping nose into the wind.

That's the case which is very much evident in the video Gusty.  :giggle:

Didn't think so sandy ! sam will be able to tell, to me it appeared nothing more than moderate winds, well ! i did look at my Beaufort Scale pointers before commenting !

Gusty I did not hope you to take to the word strong  so strongly  :rofl:  :rofl:

conceited to moderate  :giggle: :giggle:

I am happy that you agree with the fact that there was some gust and I am sure ok with it if you say it was not Gusty  :rofl: :rofl:

hahahah!

it was Beufort Scale 2-3 rather than 5-6  :rofl:

I would say it was Beufort Scale 4  which you missed in between :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I learnt something today and this is getting interesting thanks to Gusty and Sandy :) . The wind that day was quite stroong. Another issue we face is the sudden change of wind directions. I would count it at least a 5 as it was pretty difficult to keep it in one place. The moment the plane gets vertical, it drifts away. The club flag as well as the windsock were fluttering pretty hard.

Gusty bhai...please go on with the pointers and help me advance my skill level. It would be an honor if u could make it to our field one day :D

Thanks Anilesh :)

Though was fasting, hotter weather but better wind conditions and couldn't stop the urge to fly ;) . As pointed by Gusty Bhai, tried my best to keep the tail tucked under :D
