the control unit you used and engine are crap i had a glider with the same stuff and it went up and came back down like a brick. and also the wind did it.

@AntoBoesi *laugh* Exactly what I was thinking. Beautiful plane though! Seemed like the engine torque pulled it to the side? Also it seemed windy.

hey thanks a ton. yeah the guy at the hobby store told me to go with rudder elevator because the wing was mounted on top of the fuselage.

Keep at it man… it takes experiences like that to learn. It also does not hurt to get to know a few others doing it as well.
One thing important to note, is you put a flat wing airplane on a 3 channel radio. Dihedral is required in the main wing for rudder elevator flight.
