Here's Mike demonstrating his reed flying skills. He does rolling circles with his birdy model, but he didn't have that with him yesterday. We gave up trying to video a good landing after about half a dozen attempts. I think Mike needs a stronger rubber band on the undercarriage! :lol:

It is a challenge to not over control, decide if I need some elevator trim adjustment, vary the throttle and control the elevator.

When my Reed Bunting is repaired, it can get its own video, landings seem easier, I add some down trim and generally get closer to the strip.
