I've a lot to learn.....about non Cox engines
Went to the circle this evening. My Ring performed quite well. I had run it too lean previously and it was sagging and not keeping my lines tight. So, that was what my issue was last week. Back on top again!

Good going, you're gettn' a lot of good practice with that thing.
So what kind of cool new tricks are you learning to do with it?

Nothing new so much as refining what I already know. Making my insides and outsides look nice and nice level inverted laps nice and flat. Think it's time to step it up though as my comfort level has increased.

I'm glad to hear you're getting it smoothed out. I guess proper figure 8s are one of the the next steps. I've never actually done them correctly, mine are more like infinity symbols without the full inside loop to begin. It's on my list. Needless to say, watch out for that comfort level thing.cribbs74 wrote:Nothing new so much as refining what I already know.

Re: I've a lot to learn.....about non Cox engines
Yep, my very first favorite stunt was the horizontal 8 from a loop, pull back and slowly feed down to inverted, then down to go back up.
Flying the 'pattern' as posted in another thread, i never liked the hour glass, cloverleaf and overhead 8's i always thought were neat!
Rusty, take a look at the Beginner Stunt pattern, you could do that easy.
