well the roll rate is freakish , i really like it that way. post stall you can barely notice it and i mean barely. I actually think torque rolls are alil easier. Harrier i wouldnt call it wing rock just have to be on the sticks a fuzz more. Tumbling is better also.

I flew both Lasers with and without SFGs. Since I am working on pitch maneuvers like waterfalls and the Vortex I stuck with the SFGs. I think rollers are easier with them as well as it slows down the roll rate and gives it more beta stability. For tumbles and other high energy moves without them is better. I can't say it is night and day different though, unlike some other airplanes.

On the 15cc Edge conversion I have not even tried the SFGs yet as it flies so well without them.

Without SFG's: Knife edge is a little difficult and requires lots of rudder, High alpha is still phenomenal.

That's what I expected for KE. I noticed while flying it in Arkansas that it needed a lot of rudder for the mid to slow KE.
Since I do a lot of KE flying, I'll probably leave them on.

Yeah, I was getting blow back because the aileron servos were going bad. I think I need to reduce my servo arms to make the servos last longer.

I did a riffle roller and the ailerons moved half of the way back to center for a little bit.

When I landed they began to violently twitch.

:facepalm:

Heli direct is going to take care of the issue though. :cool:
