I was wondering why the stabs on most of the full size aerobatic palnes are much higher than what they are on models? if you look at most full scale edge's extra's yaks and sukoi's the tail sits pretty high in the turtle deck but on our rc sized planes it is more in line with the wings and thrust. |

You ask why the full scales don't have stabs in the thrust line, .. whereas I ask why replica models don't have stabs aesthetically correct to the full scale position? Actually, I know the answer, to help them fly pure and true with little coupling, but I still wish they were placed where they belong, especially since we all have computer radios that can mix out most bad characteristics. I have an EF Extra 300, and they are super flying planes, but that stab is sooo low on the tail, the cables and control horn have to be mounted on the TOP ... of the elevator instead of below. Man, ..that just don't seem right. .. but I do understand.
