Bill, I'm not dumping mine! I am keeping an eye on development, however. One of the great things about the hobby, the constant evolution of designs. When you get near the top of optimization there have to be some sacrifices. After you've flown for awhile you try to figure out where you need the most help. We all know that you should fly one design until you realize any shortcomings that you feel are holding you back. Then you move on. This elusive moving target and the quest for the "Silver Bullet" never seems to end.
So when they make that next model that is very robust yet extremely light, the one that can fly really fast between thermals and really slow for landing, the one that handles like a hand launch yet you can see when it is 2,000 feet away, I'll check it out. For now I'll keep working on landings and finding 10 minute air. JE -- Erickson Architects John R.
