That "Skinny Bomber" really flies nicely and has a very nice slow glide! Wonder how it would do outdoors...

Staubkorb,

If you fly it outdoors be sure to have your name and phone number on it. Does that answer your question?

The Ascender and Side Effect production prototypes. The Ascender is ready for prime time. The Side Effect needs at least one more prototype.

Here is a video of the Ascender flying indoors at the last OFFC meeting. I had !/8" rubber on it to fly outdoors but no one would go outside to video it for me. (They were busy trimming models for next week's contest.) I had to keep the winds down to keep it out of the lights.

I made a bonehead mistake redrawing the Side Effect for production that's what is delaying it.
