I am getting this book after Christmas I have experimented with the KF airfoil 2, I am noob flying a streight wing foam board spitfire in 25 MPH winds suing the KFM #2 airfoil
All I can say
Is it works perfectly, the plane has been crashed 7 times, wings are crumpeled I am new to the sport, and 25 MPH winds yet today I felt like I was flying a airplane right off a computer simulator it flew as if there was no wind.
That thing floats great.. I am so impressed with it over all. 5 stars
Read Kline's book you read he wanted a plane that would fly up ( nose up at about 30 deg ) to a peek. Then Glide strait and float to get as far as possible.. You proved the design works with your build ..
old habits are hard to break... you don't have to side launch this plane because the prop is in the front. LOL. but it is good to launch all your planes like this in case you switch back to a pusher prop and forget about the dangers of hand launching it the traditional way. you could probably fly around for an hour on a single charge. great job on replicating the original paper plane (asthetically and performance wise). 5 stars for making Dick proud
Great flight! Looks like the design worked great. I thought it might be a lot more dificult to make a plane from a paper plane , but you guys seem to know how to dial it in so that it stays in balance.
OUTSTANDING JOB! What a thrill to see the Condor flying like that. You've done some amazing work with this build. I love the way it just floats gently through the air. Thank you so much for making the Condor a reality in the RC.
Thanks Dick for all your help and encouragement! It was a lot of fun to try and build the Condor. I just hope it honors the Condor plane you made OK. I'm sure there will be many more flights with this awesome gliding plane. Thanks again so much for all you do!
Thanks RCFLIGHTHELP! Yes, try out a KF Airfoil on one of your planes, I'm becoming a big believer in how well they work. Th KFm2 really made my smaller FF-23 fly better and more stable. It also gliges pretty nice now.
I think I am going to try a KFm2 ( the one with foam on top and bottom of wing ) with my new quadwinged plane thats going to be super aerobatic. F-22 doesn't need it.
Nice,it looks like it would fly all day on that set up ;-) the landings where bang on and the short flight with the two birds flying at the end look real cool=5*
Thanks startazz for your comments here and in your email for the Sept. Drawing!. We really appreciate your awesome support! I hope you get some good calm days so you can fly soon too. Keep up the awesome work on your side of the pond too there in the UK! Thanks again,
OMG i had that book

Great build once again Pauly. I love the way it glides. Oh, and the dog-fight scene at the end was pretty cool too. Keep up the good work mang!

Thanks mostangrypirate! it is a cool plane to fly now i have it dialed in. it does just hang in the air and glide around so well.

Great job .. Great Tribute ! I need to use KF airfoils myself.
It glides great ... Thats one of my favorite things to do with my easystar ... take it up really really high and glide it for 10 min.
