    Bernd actually was a TOC and Don Lowe Masters pilot. Those guys actually had to fly the sequence and freestyle with the same plane.

    IMAC The new Dalton 300 SP / 330

    Agreed smaller elevator, smaller rudder, larger fin. Full length ailerons. Good mechanical geometry. Should be good.

    Moving to High Voltage

    To the original question my setup that I have come to like, uses two castle Bec pros set at 8.4 volts using two 3 cell lipos. I have been using this setup for the last 3 years with no issues.

    3D Hinges

    Flats hinges are fine. I have used them in a few planes. You have mor surface area ,use 30 min epoxy when gluing them.

    All the great pilots flew pattern in their life. The reports and my experience on full flying stab is that it feels very linear.

    330LX Help

    Moving the batts higher will help somewhat with the rolling of the plane in knife edge especially if it's heavy in the belly. Sounds like you want to move the batts forward though more to allow the plane to carry a little bit more up trim causing the plane to naturally pull more to the canopy...

    Stabilizer Design Discussion.

    We actually are using this on some pattern planes now some say they have great results with the full flying stab others are convinced that the conventionail method is still the way to go. I don't think it would be better at 3d though.

    Regulator info needed

    Biggest thing would just make sure you have the appropriate size gauge wire for the application. I have seen some guys order the regs with just one 22 gauge wire in and out for use on ignition but have used that for the whole plane. Otherwise go out and fly it.
